Britains Population

By 2060 we're going to have the biggest population in Europe.

Re: Britains Population

Remove the immigrants/muslims from that equation and I bet we're nowhere near the top

Re: Britains Population

Yes, by 2060, Europe's population is predicted to be 506M (up 11M), but the UK will be 77M (up 16M). Europe's figures. And this on the day our Gov. say the tide of immigration form Europe (remember they assured us it would be a few thousand a year at worst!) is subsiding.

It's nuts - the country isn't big enough - half the current problems, traffic, strain on public services, our Carbon output (if you believe that climate rubbish) etc. are down to overcrowding.

Will the Gov. do anything - will they @~£* !

.......And breathe.

Re: Britains Population

Re: Britains Population

Went to a local agricultural show recently and as I was walking past a stand some bloke said "want a newspaper?". I just grabbed it without thinking. 2 minutes later I looked at it and it was from the BNP . Although blatantly racist, the rather basic party focus and aims leaflet that was with it made a lot of sense on some points. I'll scan and post it up later on imageshack. Some points were bollocks and could or should never be inforced.

My auntie has just had her life saved by the NHS performing countless operations on her to remove cancer, all operations she could NOT have funded any other way, she'd be dead now if it wasnt for the NHS, literally.

No its not, 3rd world status means a large percentage of the population without food, we wont go that far, but we will of course see a levelling off between living standards of us and the currently underdeveloped world as more and more funds leave the country.

I don't think anything as drastic as that is needed, maybe we could persuade them to give away their bumps, something like a 'Crack for Fetus' exchange scheme.

And my mum died precisely because the NHS wasn't up to the job. She also had cancer.

Two sides to every story buddy.

Re: Britains Population

One thing that I do find 'humourous' is that this government bend over backwards to ladle on all manner of benefits for people with kids, which sounds nice, but by giving out all these benefits, only serves to exacerbate the population problems. In 40 or so years, we'll be like China, giving benefits to those that DON'T have kids, and restricting couples to only one child.

At the moment, Im made to bend over and pay becuase I dont have any kids.

nothing under this government incourages people to be responsible when bringing kids into the world. In fact, the more stupid you are the more you get from them.

Re: Britains Population

Yup, have 8 kids, don't work, and don't get encouragement to work, sponge instead! This country is fecked up!

I have to pay rent on my house, rent on my unit, business rates on my unit, road tax, traders policy, fuel, food, council tax, and I have to pay someone to help me at the unit..... I do wonder why I bother though, as most of my rates and coucil tax goes towards people that have no intention of working hard.

Perhaps they are more intelligent than me after all!

Re: Britains Population

boils my piss mate. I've seen a woman here (at work that is) get preganant, no relationship with the father but decide shes always wanted a child and becuase there are so many hand outs she can afford to keep it!! 4 years on the kid is a right little ****, so by all counts we could be paying for the next generation of louts.

Another woman went on maternity leave, came back to work 6 months later and then 3 moths after that she decided to leave becuase having the job was cutting back on her Family Tax Credits so much, it was actually costing her money to work here!! I dont blame her, she had a straight choice between working and paying for nursery etc or giving up work, increasing income with no nursery fees! What a joke!

And just to think, not so many years ago, anyone that complained about the immigration and population problems was branded a racist!

Now that so many people are ticked off about it, I haven't heard a Labour MP trot that line out again
