UK POPULATION TO DOUBLE BY 2081

28 11 07 - 03:52 Rising immigration could double population of Britain by 2081

The population of Britain could soar to more than 100million in just over 60 years' time, figures prepared by Whitehall experts showed yesterday.

Their calculations set out the huge increase in numbers if migration continues at sky-high levels, birthrates continue to rise, and life expectancy keeps on going up.

Their figures outstripped all previous predictions and said that the population will shoot up from the present level of just over 60million to hit 100million in the late 2060s.

Words cannot express how bleak this outlook is for the British people. Yet our politicians smile and contemplate how wonderful the economy will supposedly be.

"To-morrow, and to-morrow, and to-morrow,
Creeps in this petty pace from day to day,
To the last syllable of recorded time;
And all our yesterdays have lighted fools
The way to dusty death. Out, out, brief candle!
Life's but a walking shadow; a poor player,
That struts and frets his hour upon the stage,
And then is heard no more: it is a tale
Told by an idiot, full of sound and fury,
Signifying nothing."

From William Shakespeare's "Macbeth"
