70 Million's A Crowd
Well, it's official: England is the most crowded large country in Europe.
With 395 people per square kilometre, the English now beat the Dutch, traditionally the EU's most crushed-together population, to become "the Bangladesh of Europe." Indeed, it's now third most crowded country in the world, after Bangladesh! The population density in England is already almost double the level in Germany and quadruple that in France. Only tiny Malta is more crowded, and it's basically half a million people huddled on a rock in the Med.
Forecasts show that England's population growth, mostly fuelled by immigration, will rise to up to 80 million by 2050.
