Your source also says that immigrants from places where polygamy is lawful will have their marriages recognised as lawful in the UK.
Given that whites represent about 82% of the population this does suggest that non-whites are slightly over-represented.
But there are a multitude of social and economic factors at play.

Yes, I donât see how that could be otherwise. I canât imagine number are high.
So very closely aligned with the demographic split of ethnicities in the UK.
Which doesnât confirm or rebuff the claim that said demographic are enjoying the fruits of the taxpayerâs labour disproportionately.
Yes they were.
It operated as an initial claim where husband and first wife claimed; then the other wives made individual claims.
I wonder how many of a general population would support gay marriage and marriage of transgender people, but oppose polygamy?

Itâs somewhat difficult to say - but as I said there are cultural factors at play. For instance women in Muslim families are often carers for children or parents and so do not work.
Note that we are into Heisenberg immigrant territory here - on the one hand the RW would have you believe they are all scroungers on benefits, on the other that they are taking all the jobs that should be going to whites.
It is also rather ironic that the likes of Farage will complain about Muslim women not working and staying in the home while holding steadfast to the notion that white women should be tied to the kitchen sink and/or marital bed.

Most government stats about Benefits donât include the claimantâs religion (for obvious reasons).
My reason for asking the questions I have is to try and make a list of the top 10 bits of BS farage says by backing it with data. This of course should be being done already by other political parties in order to shut him down, however as the other parties are as weak as water and therefore likely to form another useless lunch club government voter apathy grows and the right wing also.
Two different things, isnât it? Itâs an interesting question though, and not just desert sheikhs etc, I wonder how all those Mormons would get on in Europe.

Women in Muslim families often donât speak English sufficiently to get a job (and, not infrequently, thereâs an element of the men wanting to keep it that way)
I donât think he does, does he? I have never seen him express anything close to that opinion.
To me, society has defined and more recently redefined what it sees as âaccepableâ marriage, but within a narrow western concept of 2 individuals who commit to living together. Mormons, as you pointed out and I demonstrated, tend to be overlooked on the polygamy front, but it also feels like thereâs a large amount of turning a blind eye towards them socially. Of course if youâre running a civil service responsible for social care and taxation then all these situations must be visible and problematic if the scope of the rules doesnât match their situation.
But in the context of the thread itâs social perceptions that are our concern. I would think many would be happier seen as opposing polygamous muslin immigrants and terrorists than being overtly homophobic.
Heâ's not very positive about women in the workplace
Reform would ârip upâ the Equality act if in government
He has been extremely patronising when interviewed by female journalists.
Not Farage but another Reform member
Farage is very much a proponent of âtraditionalâ heterosexual marriage (which is not, as he claims, the most stable coupling - itâs probably gay male marriages).
Heâs known to have ties with US anti-abortionists and to favour stricter abortion limits.
So, no, he hasnât said explicitly that women should stay at home and confine themselves to having babies - but itâs not hard to extrapolate from what he has said to see that is what he probably thinks.

Also opposing stereotypical Muslim polygamy is an easy way to get out of being a common or garden racist.
Edited to add that polygamists wherever they are from often have other unsavoury practices eg child âmarriageâ etc
Are there many LGBTQ+ terrorists and would-be immigrants?

Iâm for absolute transparency in all government data.
Providing itâs legal in your country of residence, peopleâs domestic arrangements are none of my business.
Just donât expect me to wear a badge showing my support for âThe current thingâ.

They are a bunch of revolting chip-on-shoulder shits who feel the urge to put half the population down because they are too useless themselves to succeed in life without an unfair advantage or a bung from dodgy fellow-travellers. Presumably they imagine if women are desperate theyâll get a girlfriend, what losers.
Edited because I found this little video by led by donkeys you may enjoy, or it may make you despair.

Iâm a doctor and I can see you have the symptoms of SFitis.
You read someoneâs comments; you disagree with them; so you extrapolate an extreme version of âwhat that sort of person believesâ.
Iâve not seen anyone cured, and it is highly contagious!
Resorting to ad hominem attacks usually means you are out of rational arguments.
