Well, ask yourself very seriously whether letting Reform get in is better than not punishing Labour (when there are chances to punish Labour anyway in seats where Reform doesn't have a chance). Unfortunately FPTP is the voting system we have at the moment.

All countries are experiencing falling birth rates.

For now.

Please cite this "global demographers and statisticians" that provide evidence that an ageing population is an easy problem, or that there is an infinite supply of immigrants.

Do you think they come out of some sort of plantation that infinitely produces them? They come out of countries that all are seeing their birthrates decline, and often are already below replacement.

Noah Smith has also been friendly with race science promoter Jordan "Cremieux" Lasker for a good 2-3 years now, and was saying stuff like the below a year ago. It's not just that he thinks the left is more annoying than the right is dangerous, it's that he thinks the right has more of a point

Population lags behind birth rate even without immigration for obvious reasons.

But what the countries with a below-replacement birth rate who through no fault of their own fall behind in the race to attract immigrants? What should they do?

Well for me it has jack shit to do with population growth and everything to do with age distribution. An ageing population creates a massive amount of problems!

...and then you run out of immigrants anyway if you pick the first option. The problem of the birthrate and ageing populations is an extremely tricky one that people tend to prefer to ignore.

What are the alternative solutions?

The problem is that the supply of "imported babies" is running out.

Why do predominantly non-white countries like China/Korea/Japan think they have a population crisis then?
