Description

Britain faces a demographic shift as deaths surpass births in 2026, ending century-long growth. The Resolution Foundation report highlights the increased reliance on immigration for population growth. Amidst political debate on migration, Prime Minister Keir Starmer aims to cut high migration levels, while Nigel Farages Reform UK party gains popularity with anti-immigration pledges. The report also warns of rising unemployment due to economic factors, potentially boosting productivity but causing job losses. Net migration has dropped, and business confidence is low, with firms planning price hikes and the Bank of England facing challenges in fighting inflation. Similar birth shortfalls are occurring across Europe. Checkout Solipillow.com
