These most recent projections of where the UK's poplation will be in 20 years' time (70million) are quite shocking but not entirely surprising.
The thing that interests me is the rationale behind our seemingly insane immigration policy. As a descendant of recent immigrants from Eastern Europe I am familiar with the politics of subversion and the way they are used to totally destroy an established society. For instance in Hungary during the revolution of late 50s the Soviets would use racial politics to set the Chinese community against the indigenous population & hence get them on side.
Now, I would never have thought that such things could ever happen in the country that my family have always regarded as a beacon of fairness and liberty but I can see no other reason for such a huge influx of (often) unskilled migrants putting such a huge strain on our resources. There's the argument that they are contributing to our economy but that was unanimously debunked by the Economic Affairs Committee of the House of Lords last year.
So what's their game? Is it really that the government just hate white middle England and want to turn the UK into some utopian rainbow nation? Maybe it's all driven by global economics and the mirants are just fodder for the big corporations? Or maybe I'm having paranoid delusions, though I don't think so - there's definitely intention behind the apparent chaos. Please discuss.
