A baby boom among immigrant families is driving the population to a record high, government figures will show this week.As Mullah Krekar put it, "we are the ones who will change you". Or should he perhaps have said "replace you"?
The figures, from the Office for National Statistics, will reveal that Britain's highest birth rates are in the Pakistani and Bangladeshi communities, both predominantly Muslim.
The birth rate among women born in Pakistan but living in the UK is three times higher than that among British-born women, the figures will show.
Separate figures due this month will reveal whether Mohammed has overtaken Jack as Britain's most popular name for baby boys.
