In the London Telegraph is this set of astonishing statistics about London, which (once upon a time) was an epicenter of the West:
Almost nine in 10 babies born in parts of Britain have at least one foreign-born parent, official figures have revealed for the first time.
The Office for National Statistics disclosed that in 2012 more than 80 per cent of babies born in three London boroughs had either one or both parents born outside the UK.
Across London, nearly seven in 10 babies had at least one non-British father or mother, while across England and Wales the figure was one in three.
