Not to mention most of these people will be either foreign or old.
We really should legalise people hunting, that'd drop crime to nothing and give the foxes a break.

The population of the United Kingdom is projected to grow at its fastest rate since the baby boom of the 1960s. The number of people is expected to rise by 10 million to 70 million, with immigration accounting for most of the increase. [my emphasis]
As the population grows, better healthcare will mean millions more living longer, with the number of people aged 100 and over increasing sevenfold to 80,000, according to official figures published yesterday.
The greying of the population will result in the number of people of pensionable age increasing by one third to 15.6 million.
This combination of a rising and an ageing population will have major consequences for the provision of housing and schools and for the development of services to care for the elderly.

Totally unsustainable growth in a country of limited size and limited resources!
"Of all tyrannies, a tyranny sincerely exercised 'for the good of its victims' may be the most oppressive. It would be better to live under robber barons than under omnipotent moral busybodies. The robber baron's cruelty may sometimes sleep, his cupidity may at some point be satiated; but those who torment us 'for our own good' will torment us without end for they do so with the approval of their own conscience." -- C.S. Lewis

Why do people go to Britain, it's cold and dreary, plus many immigrants end up in poorly paid jobs.
If I emigrate, I'd go somewhere hot and sunny, with a good economic outlook.
Why can't Jesus eat M&Ms?
Because they keep falling through the holes in his hands!
Jesus may love you, but he won't respect you in the morning.

The difference is we needed the population growth (still do IMO), Britain does not.
