      An increase in births to fathers over 60 is interesting. However, the increase to mums other 35 isn’t and points to the ever increasing issue of the cost of living and childcare.

      I’ve only skimmed this article but they’re not delving into the cultural elements to give a more accurate picture. The uptick in births is likely driven by immigrant families having children; the rate of which increased from 31.8% in 2023 to 33.9% in 2024, where only the mother was foreign-born.

      About 40% of births are to foreign-born parent/s overall, up from 37.3% in 2023. 

      Finally, it’s still the 3rd lowest births rate despite the uptick, so it is potentially an anomaly.

      Up in the West Midlands and London, everywhere else slacking apparently!

      Increased due to the number of babies born to foreign born mothers. 33.9% up from 31.8% the past year.

      I recommend to everyone who is interested or has an opinion on this to read the excellent book [No one left](https://www.amazon.co.uk/No-One-Left-World-Children-ebook/dp/B0CV96627G?_encoding=UTF8&dib_tag=se&dib=eyJ2IjoiMSJ9.ibeIKO9zCGnfy8BltVjjfzAkGN96e-zIKjQuHLPv6kxfgsB_WS0KSmym1VXNkE8DDwoA5vLGmHBmDv_uCkPYV6uyenO5hlMj8pOMeC1VkUOw0cYZ5Q-kMGuPhNkNvmbOkKdV2sHmqVQXdQBiv6N5Fc3T7tKzq4Gf6kI0cRdgGEJULem6nO9p18BPy_-dCxIjsGH2gApoFkrqoIXvJ_fjW_KIQ2CInMRdj7FTfYZu74s.MWIsClrMaCQqeJkALWn-0Jwr9Fq97rlG6aoTftcT5JU&qid=1751413542&sr=8-1) as it breaks down every assumption we all have about why the birthrate is falling and then uses actual facts to explain the reasons.

      TLDR; its not as simple as we all think. The facts don’t lie.

      Declining birthrate in England? Import half a million squatters from shitholes and let them breed like headlice, problem solved

      Natives would have children if we could get a job with decent pay and buy a house… but we can’t because of mass immigration.
