It’s still above the rate at which Protestants reproduce, and therefore the potential of Catholics to determine a reunification vote is increasing all the time. That was the point.

… and your point is still nonsense. Have you no concept of how statistically insignificant a difference of 0.2 children per generation is?
Leaving aside of course the fact that ‘breeding like rabbits’ in nobody’s language means ‘has a bigger family than the people over the street’. Not when almost no family in the street has more than 2 kids and some only have one.
Face it. Surprising as it may seem, you got caught out mindlessly rehearsing tropes.

Statistics again
I remember all the fun and hilarity when 2.4 children was the butt of jokes

Well, it’s a common misconception, obviously based on the past if the above posts are correct.
You don’t have to be so rude in so many of your responses. It discourages some from posting anything.

Re: Reform UK's chronicles
I like straightforward talk. It allows me to be at least equally forthright.
That’s one of the things I like about GB News.
