Less than a quarter of people think you must be a Christian to be considered British.
The figure from a Nat Cen social attitudes survey has fallen from one third just a decade ago.
Meanwhile the findings show a rise in the number thinking you must speak English and be born her to be truly British.
Penny Young from Nat Cen explains to Premier why Christianity is less important:
News you can believe in. Stand with Premier Christian News today.
Your gift today ensures that Premier Christian News can press forward in strength, reaching more people with biblical truth and shaping the future of Christian thought. It’s more than just a donation—it’s an investment in renewed minds and transformed lives.
Without continued support, the ability to create and distribute resources that strengthen faith and equip the church will be compromised. But with your help, we can grow deeper, stand firmer, and shine brighter in the culture.
Your support today is critical.
