The UK population is projected to rise to 72.5 million by mid-2032 from 67.6 million in mid-2022, driven almost entirely by net migration, the Office for National Statistics said on Tuesday.

The majority of the UK population describes their ethnic group as "white", but over the years the majority has been falling - from 94.1 per cent in 1991 to 86 per cent in 2011.

If net migration reaches the highest level currently believed to be likely by the ONS, the UK population will be 73.2 million by 2032 and have grown by a further nine million to 82.2 million by 2050.

The United Kingdom's population is projected to grow 3.2% to 69.2 million in the decade to 2030, up from 67.1 million in 2020. In the decade to 2020, the population grew by 4.3 million, or 6.9%.
