Issue 4: NHS (1)

The destruction of the NHS

by Mike Walker, Editor 


Return to Home Page

The rapid population explosion in the UK, is putting unsurmountable pressure onto the NHS. This is being fuelled by mass immigration, both legal and illegal.  Much is the blame of successive past Conservative governments. It is now being ameliorated and facilitated by the present Labour government.

The result is:

(1) Increased patient to medical staff ratio

(2) Longer waiting lists

(3) Doctors have less time to care for each of their patients

(4) A 'black hole of ever-increasing financial demand' from the public purse.

(5) Increased stress of care practitioners, causing doctors and nurses to leave the profession.


Direct quotations from the BMA:

‘GP practices across the country are experiencing significant and growing strain with declining GP numbers, rising demand, struggles to recruit and retain staff and knock-on effects for patients.

Fewer doctors are looking after greater numbers of patients

Whilst the GP workforce is declining, the number of patients is increasing. In April 2024, another record-high of 63.32 million patients were registered with GP practices in England.

As a result, the average number of patients each full-time equivalent GP is responsible for now stands at 2,294.’

‘This is an increase of 356 patients per GP, or 18%, since 2015, demonstrating the ever-mounting workload in general practice’.  

Pressures in general practice (BMA)

What the BMA is calling for?

‘Prevent hospitals from being overwhelmed. Given the immense strain on secondary care, the BMA is calling for immediate actions to be taken to prevent waiting lists from growing faster than they already are and to prevent increased pressure on hospitals.’  

NHS Backlog Analysis Data

Most of the main political parties in this country want mass uncontrolled immigration into the UK.

In 1992, the UK population was 57.5 million approximately.  In 2022 it was 10 million more at 67.5 million approximately. 

UK Population 

‘UK population projected to hit 70 million in two years. By 2036, the population is set to grow to 73.7 million, including net international migration of 6.1 million.’ 

UK Population (2)

The Conservatives, Labour and Liberal Democrats have no interest to impose a cap to immigration. Neither will they develop sensible measures to control the UK population, such as family planning education.  Their prosaic response to the NHS crisis is merely to proclaim, with sanctimonious glee, that more public money will be thrown at the problem.

Ironically, they then advocate their support for an open borders policy. The direct cause of the increasing patient: medical practice ratio.

Meanwhile, the people do not get the medical attention they need.

And more are dying needlessly.

Their hypocrisy is jaw-dropping.

Issue 5: Denial (1)

Population Shaming by Mike Walker, Editor  Return to Home Page In this edition of The Sustainable Population (SP) Newsletter, I felt it important to examine why so many are in complete denial of the dangers of overpopulation. Indeed there is an active rebuttal towards others who try to raise the issue. I believe that for many, living in a highly urbanised environment, has dulled their affinity and respect for the natural world and the green belt.  The occasional road journey past fields and woods has no meaning, relative to their daily experiences.   They have become detached from that which gave us our very existence, mother nature.   Each day, many live for nothing else, but their wants and needs and immediate concerns for family and friends. Television and the mobile phone have created a dome, encapsulating their world.  Many are prisoners of a fixed mindset, with no concern to towards anyone or anything else.  To concrete and tarmac the greenb...

Issue 1: Introduction

  Rights, Responsibilities, Selfishness and Overpopulation by Mike Walker, Editor   Return to Home Page Welcome to the first issue of a weekly newsletter called Sustainable Population. These publications are designed to highlight to the dangers which arise when governments deliberately encourage overpopulation. In many ways the need to raise awareness of these concerns has become the raison d'etre for the very existence of Reform UK.  The self serving arrogance of the main political parties over the last 20 years, has polarised a divide between the ruling 'elite' and the people they should be serving. They have become willing prisoners of a fixed mindset, with the sole aim to further their all consuming political ideologies.  A free, liberal, caring society is based on the notion that everyone accepts their individual rights as well as their responsibilities, with good grace. This is the cement which holds civilisation together.  We do this for not just the welf...
