Jonathon Porritt, chairman of the Sustainable Development Commission, wants the UK to remain "progressive" on immigration but thinks this can be done with a policy of "zero net immigration" and no further population growth.

His argument is that many of the huge problems the world faces are symptoms of one root problem - over population of the planet. He believes that family planning should be much higher on the political agenda so that the world isn't faced with having a population of 9 billion by 2050.

His stance on this isn't the most popular of positions amongst many politicians; is he on to something and breaking out of a politically correct silence or is his opinion not liked for a reason?
