Population increase

Powerd1991 · 2018-03-30 07:52:43

Hi, I am wondering if anyone is interested in the area of the Ireland 2040 plan where the population is expected to grow by 1 million people. I assume it is from immigration. It would be the fastest change in population since the famine! Are we able for this? - I don't know.. I think we should have a debate on it, what do…

At the rate of births per head of population and Brexit I think we will have enough growth of population from these islands without even considering immigration.
And the burning question, where are the houses for 1 million? we can't even house 5.000 homeless.....
