that we have an elderly population? People have always grew old but here is the thing 80% of 3 million  expected increase in population is down to immigration what happens when they grow old do import another 30 million people to look after them?


No. That's not how it works.

The immigrants have a different mindset. Did you wonder why their countries are out of control in terms of population? Its because they look at their kids as two more hands to earn money for the family, not as another mouth to feed or another human to look after, like we do in the west.

You won't need to import another 30 million when these get old because they will have multiplied by then.

Breaking News: Immigrants (nearly all low paid and pay little tax) will grow old and need hospital and then nursing care.

Solution: import more migrants (who are low paid and pay little tax) to look after them.

Problem: those migrants will grow old and need hospital and nursing care.....

100m here we come. IMF, please can we extend our overdraft....

Another one asserting something without supporting evidence. When did population hit 70m? Source?

apart from no one knowing how many illegals (over a million)

what do the authorities actually know?

I understand industry, strategists, infrastructure planners and food suppliers go for anything from 70 to 80 billion

As someone who clearly knows all about this haggy how many do you think?

I don't claim to know. I just don't accept your assertion that it's already 70m. I'll have a bet with you that the upcoming census is below 69m though, and assume the 1m illegals to be accurate.

The number of indigenous British living on these islands has remained constant @ 56,000,000 since the mid-70's . I'd wager this figure hasn't changed more than +/- 1% Plain

I can safely assure you we are getting the backing of Niger's premier.  He is asking women not to have 7 babies(blaming it on islam)  - going to pull back to 6  - so population can be controlled.  So there.

Almost a tenth of babies and toddlers in England and Wales are Muslim, declared the Times on its front page on Friday, indicating what it describes as a "startling shift" in the demographic trend in England and Wales. So where did the figures come from and are they as revealing as claimed?

Thats from the Guardian , Figures a Few years old , Would imagine an icrease since then .

General Population figure is Around 4.5 %  Shocked

20,000   /  300 constituencies  - it doesn't take that much to move things.
I will tell my comrade anxious something

It only takes a couple of dozen to take a ward.
How many to take a constituency???

The fact of the matter is the population growth is out of control 70 million today and growing by the day the UK is importing vast amounts of food from abroad already and we all know our dependency on imported food is only going to increase, its going to increase at the same time the world population is also increasing by 2050 estimates say there will 9.7 billion of us.
Will there be enough food for us all and can we still expect to buy food from the very countries that are driving population growth?
Yes we can grow enough food here if we adopt the Dutch way of farming but this would require capable politicians and something we just do not have.

You say "the fact of the matter is" then state that 70m number again. It's not 70 million. Not yet, anyway.

Nitpicking? Stick to facts then. Population not predicted to hit 70m until 2031, according to that article in the FT.

So if you are not nit picking and attempting to drag the thread off topic then what is you are trying to say?
You know the UK's population is growing out of control and will be if not already be over 70 million very soon, you know we have problems and you also know nothing is getting done about it this is going to be a disaster in the near future.

Do you accept it will be very soon officially there are where 67.6 million people in the UK as of 30 Sep 2019 this does not include any illegal immigrants. So very soon if not already the population will exceed 70 million either way there are far too many people here in the UK and that was my point in the first place sorry for being so vague.

Not sure it matters if it is 67.5 million or 70 million. The issues of food supply, schools, housing, traffic etc. etc. keep getting worse and will continue to do so.

partly due to an ageing poulation too ,so immigration is a mixed bag  ,it has it's problems  but you also need young bones   ...you can't have a geriatric population
