CONCERNING your report of a baby boom in Poole, surely this is the last thing we need?

The effects of the present over-population are so obvious; the roads are choked with carcinogenic traffic fumes and the countryside is vanishing through the need to house the excess of people, quite apart from the economic consequences.

Wouldn’t it be desirable in the near future to limit child benefit to two children per family?
