None of it to do with either net migration or the considerably higher birthrates within some migrant communities.

I hope you didn't have a straight face when you wrote that

Net migration has increased the uk population by 240,000 per year since the 1990's

Net migration is the number of immigrants minus the number of emigrants. The growth of the UK population since the 1990s has been attributed primarily to the growth of net migration. The direct effect of net migration has increased the UK population by more than 240,000 people per year on average from 2004 to 2014; this is about 40,000 more people per year than natural change for the same period. Figure 2 shows the levels of emigration and immigration since the early 1990s.

Maybe Germany would feel happier with an EU army over which it would have far more influence than it does within Nato?

Relax man ,we still in the EU so everything fine, no wars or nothing bad can happen ,leaving the EU is when the war starts
