And if you think the roads are little crowded now imagine what it'll be like when we hit 70,000 million people living here by 2020.

I've told you a million times, don't exaggerate!!

The only growth in the UK is coming from immigration and housing. And one is driving the other.

Population Estimates for UK, England and Wales, Scotland and Northern Ireland, Mid-2014 - ONS

The population of the UK at 30 June 2014 is estimated to be 64,596,800.

Over the year to mid-2014 the number of people resident in the UK increased by 491,100 (up 0.77%), which is above the average annual increase (0.75%) seen over the last decade.

The population increase in the year to mid-2014 included natural growth of 226,200 people (777,400 births minus 551,200 deaths).

Net international migration of 259,700 people in the year to mid-2014 (582,600 international migrants arrived in the UK and 322,900 migrants left the UK to live abroad) also added to population growth.

An increase to the population in the year to mid-2014 of 5,200 was due to other changes and adjustments; mainly in the armed forces.

The number of births occurring in the year to mid-2014 is down on that seen in the previous year (down 1.9%), continuing the downward movement seen in births since the recent peak in the year to mid-2012.

Net international migration in the year to mid-2014 is the highest since the year to mid-2011 and up by 76,300 from 183,400 since last year.

The median age of the population (the age at which half the population is younger and half the population is older) at mid-2014 was 40 years - the highest ever estimated.

The number and proportion of older people continues to rise, with over 11.4 million (17.7% of the population) aged 65 and over in mid-2014, up from 11.1 million (17.4%) last year.
