"UK official population is set to rise to over 70 million, almost entirely due to legal migration. Water companies have suggested the actual numbers could be 5-10 million higher due to illegal migration and poor statistics. Incredibly the Govt has no real idea who is living in the UK. Is this figure sustainable or even desirable ? " No and no again. | |||

Is this figure sustainable or even desirable ? " Worldometers has an interesting graph (not exact years and figures): Approx 50 million in 1950, approx 60 million in 2004, approx 70 million 2025. So it took approx 50 years to increase by ten million then twenty years to increase by another 10. 1980 saw the lowest migration increase. 2022 saw the highest. | |||

Is this figure sustainable or even desirable ? " The government not setting targets to reduce immigration to is good in one way as the last government showed they were completely meaningless. However they do agree it is to high and needs reducing but without committing to even a ball park figure how do you measure any success. Or is that deliberate to avoid any accusations of failure? | |||

"I guess this correlates somehow to the estimated global population increase of two billion more people by 2080 (UN) " No birth control due to religion. Some countries are having to ask the parents to reduce producing more the 1 or 2 children.Up until recently war and famine and desease have been the main forms of birth control, with reducing living spaces their government's are only now realising the cause n effect syndrome of births and war. | |||

No birth control due to religion. What about lack of availability of birth control. That might be more accurate but only one of many factors of population growth. More people means more babies | |||

The joint disasters of obsession with a perceived need for growth (including population) and societies obsession with watching the moron's monitor (formerly the idiot's lantern). | |||
