New forecasts have predicted that the ever continual migrant population will ensure that Britain will become the most populous nation in Europe.
The EU statistical office Eurostat predicts that Britain’s population will increase from 61m to 76.6m by 2060. Most of the rest of Europe is predicted to decrease in population.
It will have profound effects on the employment market, although a long way away, the effects could be devastating with the UK unable to be able to support such vast numbers.
London’s Metropolitan Police Service is holding a recruitment event at the Business Design Centre in Islington on Saturday, between 10am-3pm, where visitors will find out about life as a Met Police Officer and whether it could be the career for them. To book a place visit www.met.police.uk/careers
Another option to gain valuable experience in Police work is to become a Police Community Support Officers (PCSOs) and work alongside the regular police.
By dealing with minor incidents, PCSOs allow police officers to make more effective use of their time. Jobs include patrolling the streets, issuing fixed penalty notices and assisting at sports events or demonstrations.
There are lots of other background jobs available, from front counter staff to caterers and cleaners. Every local police force sets its own entry requirements and publicises vacancies.
