    ‘It’s a national crisis’: UK’s birth rate is falling dramatically.

    Very strange news this. UK locked up for 18 months and no baby boom expected?
    (in fact the opposite)

    I wonder why?



    ‘It’s a national crisis’: UK’s birth rate is falling dramatically

    The birth rate in England and Wales is now the lowest it has ever been since records began. Only 11 babies were born for every 1,000 people in 2018, with 657,076 born overall. To put this in perspective, 957,782 babies were born in 1920 despite the overall population being 22m fewer than it is today.
    It may not seem a cause for concern. We are all familiar with the strain being placed on the environment by increased human activity – and in fact it has even been suggested that to help tackle climate change people should be having fewer children.
    But with an increasingly ageing population, and Brexit due to impact on the number of non-British workers in the employment market, the UK is facing a population crisis.

    I'm sure the latest batch of illegal immigrants and 'refugees' will start to fix that.
