Reform UK’s Matt Goodwin gets to 2063 by freezing birth rates at their 2022 values: "White British 1.61 … Non-White 1.92 … Muslim 2.35". Migrant families usually converge on the average inside a generation. His model never lets them. fibberd.com/b/a-date-built-on-sand #UKPolitics

The most-seen 2063 post wasn’t Matt Goodwin’s. Ian Miles, 1 September 2025, 5.6 million views: "official projections show" native Britons "slipping into minority status by 2063". The ONS: "We do not produce projections by ethnic group." fibberd.com/a-date-built-on-sand

There are no official projections of the UK population by ethnic group. The Office for National Statistics, asked directly in November 2024, said: "We do not produce projections by ethnic group."

Britain already strips citizenship for fraud: at least 1,565 orders from 2010 to 2024, about a hundred a year, each open to appeal. Rupert Lowe now wants a mass review, for "fraud, deception and crimes against our people". fibberd.com/crimes-against-our-peop…

On the BBC on 7 August, Rupert Lowe would not say if King Charles passed a two-UK-born-parents test. Prince Philip was born in Greece. "We can split hairs." A month later Restore's paper settled on one British-born parent. fibberd.com/british-but-not-britons

Three groups holding the same passport, in the document's own words: British citizens equal before the law; citizens with at least one British-born parent, whose connection would be recognised in national policy; and Britons, defined as White British, whose continuity the state is to protect.

When the Telegraph ran Matt Goodwin's 2063 date, the caption under its chart said: "Other white" category not shown. Two days later Goodwin spelt out the count: "Once you exclude 'White Other', then the White British..." fibberd.com/a-date-built-on-sand

Matt Goodwin on 21 May 2026, the day the migration figures fell again: "Do not look at the net migration figures." His model runs on net migration. The same post sets out immigrant arrivals for 2023, 2024 and 2025, all falling.

Did you know you can be British but not a Briton? Rupert Lowe's Restore Britain published twelve pages on who the British people are. It opens by promising that British citizens are equal before the law. I read the whole thing and put twenty-seven notes in the margin.

Freud told a joke about a borrowed kettle. Returned with a hole, the borrower says three things at once. He never borrowed it. The hole was already there. It was fine when he gave it back. Each works alone. Together they sink him. Reform spent five days doing the kettle.

Matt Goodwin's model says white British people become a minority in 2063. It runs on net migration of 340,000 a year. Last year's figure was 171,000. The date has not moved.

The 2063 projection assumes 340,000 net migrants a year, every year to 2122. The actual figure for the year to December 2025 was 171,000. The central input has halved since the model was built and the date has not moved by a single year.
