Census: https://www.ons.gov.uk/peoplepopulationandcommunity/culturalidentity/religion/articles/religioninenglandandwales2011/2012-12-11
Granted that data is old, but the Office of National Statistics released estimate data in 2018 putting the percentage at around 5.1%
Roblee's source isn't an official source of data like mine is, and estimates a 1.2% rise from 2018 to 2021 when there was only a 0.3% rise between 2011 to 2018, so it seems a little inflated to me. Given it's an unofficial source, I'm not sure how much weight can be given to it either.
Funny how you've accepted Roblee's figures as accurate but assumed mine aren't, isn't it?
