Scientists from Buckingham University have predicted that for the first Time in history, the number of white people in Great Britain will fall below 50%. This situation is expected to be recorded by 2063, which is significant information for the country. Professor Matt Goodwin believes that such demographic changes will present serious challenges for Great Britain.

"Based on the analysis of migration, birth rates, and mortality, it is expected that the share of the white population will decrease from the current 73% to 57% by 2050, and then they will become a minority by 2063"

The study shows that immigration and the growing number of descendants of immigrants are key to these demographic transformations. Additionally, an increase in the share of the Muslim population from 7% to 19.2% is expected by the end of the century.

Scientists urge the British government to pay special attention to this data and take necessary measures to adapt society to the incoming demographic changes.
