Yes Tug, present figures certainly give cause for concern. Future figures we do not know, but official projections based on the current official figures are for continued rapid rise in population. And that is this month's figures and this month's projections. Richard, birth rate has only just overtaken immigration as the main driver of population rise, because of the high birth rate of immigrants. Government controls so far are utterly ineffective at controlling the spiralling population. I think it needs more than a tweak Richard.
