Kelvin Thomson MP: Sky News Interview on Population Reform 18/09/09

Kelvin Thomson, Member for Wills, tells Sky News that weve had tax reform, microeconomic reform, industrial relations reform. It is now time for population reform. We are sleepwalking into an environmental disaster. Another 13 or 14 million people will not give us a richer country, it will spread our mineral wealth more thinly and give us a poorer one. It will make a mockery of our obligation to pass on to our children a world in as good a condition as the one our grandparents gave to us. Its time we thought hard about stabilising our population.
