I find faults with this study.
1,136 Is quite a small sample considering there are over 62million people in the UK. I don't entirely trust the responses. It was done face to face and people may have been embarrassed and not answered truthfully. Unless they did more study's with similar results I wouldn't entirely trust it.
As far as people not being strictly religious is irrelevant. As long as they are saying that they are christian it gives more power to the church who can then go forward saying they are backed by 70% of the population.
Ive never heard of New atheism to be honest but as far as more important issues. Just because something else is more important doesn't mean you should ignore everything else. I would dread the day people stopped standing up to religion and its potential dangers.
