propaganda that we are concreting over the Countryside.

England already has over 400 people per square kilometre, one of the
most crowded in Europe. As we have to import much
of our food, we are vulnerable to worldwide food shortages.
Over-development is causing problems with the hydrology, as
heavy rainfall is flushed out to sea rather than recharge the
aquifers. Much of the undeveloped land is not suitable
for building on, unless you propose to put new towns on moorland and

Careful, you're trying to argue with a lefty using facts. They don't
like that and get all confused. Bluster, dogma and empty rhetoric
they're much more comfortable with.

Idiot, I am no lefty. But clearly no brainwashed right-wing sycophant. I
gave the FACTS and percentage of land usage in the UK. The UK IS EMPTY! I
am sure your brainwashing forced you to forget them immediately. Do you doff
your cap at the Toffs?

discourage the growth of population by limiting child benefit to two
children per family and reducing immigration to
below the emigration rate.

Cue mass wailing from Liberty and similar human rights bed wetters.

Another Hitler fan.
