A nation of 5,005,392

It has just been announced that our population in New Zealand reached the 5,000,000 mark in March. We gain an extra person every 20 minutes and 55 seconds.

I'd also predict a further population spike around December and onwards
Fast tracking midwife qualifications would be prudent

Seriously folks we came here in our twenties and have brought up a family here and it has been a great decision. If you have a skill you can get a work visa once the border reopens. No one asks what school you went to. Celtic TV lets you watch games live. Scots are welcomed as immigrants. Post Brexit Scotland or New Zealand. Those with get up and go will get up and go. You could be settled here by Christmas.

Will you take Neil Gaiman back ? He just travelled all the way here from NZ the other day , supposedly ( he claims ) to give his wife + family some breathing space .

Is it something in the water there that causes this lunacy ?
