    Britain now most crowded country in Europe - official

    http://www.dailymail.co.uk/pages/liv...n_page_id=1770

    The figures were released by the Office for National Statistics in a Commons written answer.

    They show that in England in 2005 there were 387 people for every square kilometre, and this rose to 390 per square kilometre in 2006.

    This is around 620 per square mile.

    At that rate England will now have overtaken the most crowded major country in Europe, Holland, which had 393 people for every square kilometre in 2005.


    All due to "immigrants" and "immigrant children" according to the relaxed and sensible Daily Mail.

          you should thank those in charge for their foresight and hope the trend continues

          this is excellent for your house prices and only bodes well for your economic future

              Evidently a family on Incapacity Benefit would have to earn at least £12/hr each to actually end up with more money in their pockets.

              No wonder we have to import millions of workers.

                What I find amusing is that in this country so many people live on such a small territory, yet most houses are 2 levels and many with gardens, yet in Russia with 10000 times more territory (or 1000 times more) people live in tower blocks of 22 storeys in Moscow and there is not enough housing there, never was and it seems never will be.

                  Labour built thousands of "Soviet" style tower blocks here in the UK in the 70's.

                  But strangely they turned in derelict crime pockets for crack whores and drug dealers.

                  Another great Socialist experiment with peoples lives.

                    They have done up a lot of these: the key thing is to minimise the number of dwellings accessible from a given entrance, otherwise the pikiness spreads all over the entire estate.

                    Most of the refubs focus on gates and stopping access and movement.
