Record immigration sees UK population soarBy Philip Johnston, Home Affairs EditorLast Updated: 2:36am BST 24/10/2007 Record immigration is fuelling the biggest rise in the population for almost 50 years, official figures show.Ten years from now, there will be 65 million people in the UK - an increase of five million - and by 2031, the population will be over 70 million, the Office for National Statistics (ONS) said.Within a generation, immigration will add the equivalent of a city the size of London to the population. This is the fastest growth rate since the post-war baby boom - and is far more rapid than the Government forecast just three years ago. One campaign group accused the Government of conducting a ''vast unplanned experiment’’ with the country’s well-being. Statisticians said at least 70 per cent of the population rise over the next 20 years will be attributable directly to immigration
