The Daily Mail has reported that Birmingham now has more Muslim than Christian children. That means that, absent any countervailing dynamic, its future is Muslim. This is not a small thing: Birmingham is Britains second city, and, in a democratic age, its structures will reflect its people. The constabulary, the school system, the hospitals will have a de facto sharia-compliant character. If youre a Muslim girl, the authorities will systematically turn a blind eye to forced marriages and honour violence, and, if youre a lower-class infidel girl, to grooming. If youre boorish enough to draw attention to such unpleasantness, youll be committing a hate crime, and Camerons even squishier successors will explain why theres no right to shout fire in a crowded theatre, which is a polite way of saying we cant afford this freedom-of-expression stuff, but will be an even more impenetrable metaphor by then, because a Muslim city wont have theatres, or a music scene. And, when they hold the party conference there next decade, bibulous Tories will notice they have to travel somewhat further than they used to to find a pub. Forty-five years ago, had a researcher for Wolverhampton MP Enoch Powell suggested that in his rivers of blood speech he might like to predict that by 2014 Birmingham would have more Muslim children than Christian, Powell would have suspected it was a set-up to make him appear ridiculous. And yet here we are. steynonline/6583/belated-alarums
