Did you know: 'An investigation by the BBC claims that British Pakistanis account for 30% of all British children with recessive disorders'
The Guardian ^ | NOVEMBER 2005 | Riazat Butt

Posted on 09/20/2023 4:21:04 AM PDT by RandFan

The Labour MP Ann Cryer has called for British Pakistanis to stop marrying their first cousins after a study suggested that they were more likely to have children with recessive disorders than the general population.

An investigation by BBC Newsnight claims that British Pakistanis account for 30% of all British children with recessive disorders, which include cystic fibrosis. Dr Peter Corry, a consultant paediatrician at Bradford royal infirmary, says his hospital sees a disproportionately high rate of recessive genetic illnesses.

He and his team have identified about 140 different autosomal recessive disorders among local children and they estimate that a typical district would see between 20 and 30.

Speaking to the Guardian, Ms Cryer said: "I'm not calling for a ban or a change in the law because that would mean changing the law for everyone. I'm simply calling for an enlightened debate. We've avoided discussions on this subject. People are being politically correct.

"It's not racist. It's a challenge, but not to the Pakistani culture. It's an opportunity to improve the lot of communities that still have this tradition. It's time they discussed it and asked if it's a good thing."

Ms Cryer said Asian communities had to adopt a different lifestyle and look outside the family for husbands and wives.

THIS IS FROM 2005.

I had no idea about this.

They make up around 2.5% of the UK population I believe.

That is if secondary concern to the deep state elitists.

As long as they eliminate the so called “oppressive white majority”.

... coming to the USA courtesy the Xiden regime.

I was once excoriated for writing that the only thing most of the Xiden invasion brought to the USA was disease, illiteracy, dependency, and sub-standard DNA.

I stand by that thought.

I see absolutely no problem in "changing the law for everyone."

Actually: No.

It's simply part of their culture / traditions.

Muslim societies in general still practice marriage customs, basically inbreeding, long abandoned or outlawed in most of the rest of the world. Banjos not included.

This is a bit messy.
Certain groups of countries have the same inbreeding problems.

This makes quite a pattern.

We can call this a cultural trait that accompanies the religion, but is not actually required in the religion.

The reason they all have double digit IQs. Muzzies are the dumbest subhumans on earth. They purposely breed intelligence out of their population. Sickening that they are allowed to pollute the west.

I thi k there is a large problem with Inbreeding too for some middle eastern people. There was a show on it awhile back showing some really deformed folks and talking about how the middle east had a real problem there.
