If someone is allowed entry, then they are allowed to enter, but they do not need to register anywhere. So any amount of people can be living here, without any authority knowing they are living here. That's ok to you?

I will accept that other poster's claims if he can back them up with some statistics from a reputable source. If you want to discuss quantum chemistry I would love to.

Gradius wrote: » United Nations forecasts from 2017 is global average population growth of approximately 1%, equating to roughly 14% total increase to 2040. I calculated, assuming a generation is 40 years, from historical government statistics and government plans, that the population increase in this country would be 59%. 59% is larger than 14%. That's not a claim. That's a mathematically calculated number. Let's imagine your idea of generation is only 20 years. Great, now we can use only historical data. And that calculation is 32% of an increase. 32% is larger than 14%. That's not a claim. That's a number. Let's get particular. The population increase from 2000 to 2010 was 0.9 million, so a 24% increase. 24% is larger than 14%. That's not a claim. That's a mathematically calculated number. Is your idea of a generation only 10 years? And so on. I'd break down the birth rates if I was bothered, and also if the information wasn't "accidentally" vague. And you already know what that's going to show, whether you can absorb it or not. Here's a bonus nugget of information too, there is +1 net migrant every 90 minutes in Ireland. So, I suppose you'll find something else to "disagree" with next...
Heraclius wrote: » How do you get a 1% growth rate to 2040 being 14%? If you mean from 2021 to 2040 surely 1% over 19 years yields 20.8% growth? I will accept your figure for the global population growth rate of 1% it seems about right. The Irish population growth rate is 1.1% (From the CSO April 2020 estimates) though which doesn't support your argument for atypical growth in Ireland. Over the same 19 year period that the world would grow 20.8% I think Ireland would grow 23.1%.

Is it everyone who isn't Irish or just asylum seekers? Last time I went campaigning in a council estate almost every door was opened by someone I believe was Irish.
