Official Statistics Published Today Show Immigration Will Add Just Under 7 Million To The UK Population In The Next 25 Years
October 21, 2009Sir Andrew Green, chairman of think tank MigrationwatchUK, said:
"The Government is in denial about the impact of immigration on our population growth."
"Seventy per cent of the fastest growth rate in history is due to immigration."
"That is equivalent to the entire population of London in the next 25 years."
"The Government's own claim for the effect of their recent measures is an annual reduction of 20,000. Today's projections show that net immigration must be reduced by 180,000 a year if we are to hold the UK's population at 65 million."
"Government measures are just scratching at the surface. Really serious measures are needed, and soon."
Immigrant Population Has Increased By More Than Two Million In Eight Years
October 19, 2009Immigrants have almost doubled under Labour
The number of immigrants in the UK has increased by more than two million in the last eight years, says a Government sponsored report – that is nearly 700 a day - entirely consistent with the figure predicted by think tank Migrationwatch in 2002 which at the time was vilified by critics.
The report by Oxford Economics, was quietly slipped out on the website of the Department for Communities and Local Government last month with no attention drawn to it.‘The report has confirmed that what Migrationwatch has been saying for seven years has turned out to be pretty accurate,’ said Chairman Sir Andrew Green.
‘In 2002 we published a prediction that net migration into the UK would be two million every decade and probably more. That estimate included an allowance for 60,000 illegal immigrants per year.
The Oxford economic report states ‘recent evidence indicates that the 2001 figure of 4.2 million foreign born people in the UK could have grown further by more than two million in the last eight years’.
