Just heard that this year Great Britain will likely join the population decline club. How much of western civilization traces back to them, now in decline. Though we will be able to say that for the entire world soon.

Hasn't the sun been setting on the British Empire for a while now?

Empire, yes. But the homeland was still strong.

My Grandma used to say the sun doesn't set on the English empire because not even God trusts the English in the dark.

The UK population is growing and is projected to continue growing.

What I think you mean is "white British people are in decline" but this isn't really true either as the absolute number is stable, it is just falling proportionately.
