"Population of Britain is set to overtake France within 13 years"

Britain's population is set to overtake that of France within 13 years because of the impact of high immigration, EU estimates have said.



Numbers of people living here will top French levels in 2030 and will keep rising to make Britain the most populous country in Europe by 2050, they predicted.

The key reason why the British population is going up so quickly compared to that of neighbouring countries is immigration, according to the projections from Eurostat.

Without high rates of immigration, they said, numbers in Britain would remain lower than those in France for half a century and longer.

But by 2050 the UK's population is predicted to be 77.1million, ahead of 74.7million in Germany and 74.2million in France.

Critics of immigration fear growing pressure on housing, transport, education, power and water, and health services, especially in southern England which attracts the majority of arriving immigrants.

Britain already has the greatest population density – the official measure of crowding – of any of the major countries of Europe.

Only the Netherlands and tiny Malta have more people crammed into each square kilometre of land in the UK, and in southern England, where there are 465 people to every square kilometer, density is on track to overtake that in the Netherlands.

We are far too small a country for a population this size. Someone in authority needs to get a grip very quickly.

I can't understand why any one in their right mind would want to come to a country which is full of thick uneducated people especially the ones who run the country.

We are far too small a country for a population this size.

A war with Russia will soon solve that problem!

Brexit will reduce net migration to zero due to immigration controls on EU nationals, says report

Brexit will trigger a major reduction in net migration, a Cambridge University study has predicted.

If immigration controls on EU nationals were imposed in mid-2019, there would be zero net migration between the UK and the continent as inflows and outflows would balance each other out, the university's Centre for Business Research forecast.

The report said this would reduce overall annual net migration to Britain to 165,000 from 2020, about half the current figure.

However, this would still be above the Government target of reducing net migration to the tens of thousands level per annum.

The study brands the pre-referendum forecasts by the Treasury - which were dubbed part of “operation fear” by the Leave side - as having “little basis in reality”.

The Cambridge survey predicts that while inflation will be higher, unemployment rates will be lower, the housing crisis will ease, and average earnings will rise by two per cent, partly due to lower migration levels.

“Our equations for earnings suggest that earnings will rise by more than 2% as employment rates reach a peak in 2017 and especially as migration reduces from 2019.

“The UK labour market has become very dependent on foreign-born labour with the increase in foreign-born workers being equivalent to over 80% of additional employment since 2004. Immigration restrictions will provide the biggest shock to wage bargaining for over a decade,” the report states.

The study finds that the dramatic fall in Sterling would have happened anyway, but over a longer period of time.

And yet no one at the Treasury has been fired for spreading false EU propaganda!
