Eire Update...

Assalaamu Alaykum,

just a quick update on Eire (Ireland).

I am looking at the info on wiki and it says it is actually under-populated. Historically, with traditional agricultural methods it supported over 8 million people, today it has just over 6 million (if you include N.Ireland as well) which means if the oil did run out and still stuck here at least we got a better chance of our kids not being eaten by the neighbours as enough land for everyone to grow food!

Its rocky coast means it will also suffer less from sea level rises than other parts of the UK, though we still don't know how the weather pattern will change as the global temperature rises.

Finally, land costs are historically lower in Eire than the rest of the UK due to massive migration from the country to the city and the elderly population are all that is left in many villages, meaning land prices have a lot of potential to drop even further.

Assalaamu Alaykum,
Abu Abdillah
