Immigration is expected to add 6.1 million people to the UK population by mid-2036, according to official projections that add pressure on British Prime Minister Rishi Sunak over a sensitive issue in the run-up to an election.
The UK's population will grow from 67 million in mid-2021 to 73.7 million in mid-2036, driven almost entirely by migration, the Office for National Statistics (ONS) forecast on Tuesday.
Migration has become a dominant political issue in Britain and will figure prominently in a national vote later this year where Sunak's ruling Conservatives are forecast in opinion polls to lose power.
The projected jump, over the 15-year period, also reflects a projection of 541,000 more births than deaths, the ONS said. Figures released in November showed annual net migration to the UK hit a record of 745,000 in 2022 and has stayed high since. The ONS projections assume a net migration level of 315,000 people annually from the year ending mid-2028 onwards.

“Rivers of blood”
Before then “vote in Parliament to erase name of Britain and replace it with Muslim name will be Tuesday, reports say.”
Sickening. They need FAR right leaders.
The UK will have so much fun becoming a colony. America is right on the coat tails.
“driven almost entirely by migration”
After the misanthropic “British” government spent 50 years telling their population to stop having children, just get an abortion.
That means that 10% of the population has been replaced by immigrants
England is lost.
Not even gonna bother posting Hank Johnson’s “Will the UK tip over?” photo.
