Must think positive thoughts....positive thoughts.....positive thoughs.
At least there will be more people to buy stuff and purchase homes therefore improving the economyLast edited by SuperZ; 21 October 2009, 12:50. -
Just over two-thirds of the increase is likely to be related directly or indirectly to migration to the UK.
Demographics, dear boy, demographics....my quagmire of greed....my cesspit of laziness and unfairness....all I am doing is sticking two fingers up at nurses, doctors and other hard working employed professionals...

I'm sure about a month ago I heard something on the Beeb world service about the government wanting to restrict an increase in the population to a "manageable" 70M. Don't know the whys or wherefors as didn't hear the whole article.
But then they did get their estimates about migrants from Eastern Europe horribly wrong by a factor of 10(?). Can't recall exactly but it was a vast underestimate.Comment
