The idea that Muslims as a group are poorly integrated is not borne out by the facts. Numerous polls have shown that Muslims tend to identify with Britain to a greater degree than the population at large. In a 2009 Gallup poll, 77% of Muslims said that they identified "very strongly" with Britain, compared with 50% of the population at large. Similarly, a 2011 Demos poll found 83% of Muslims were "proud to be British".
