We would have to import so much more food if we had that many people. about 3/4 of the UK is used for farmland already. To have another 40 odd million people we would have to use a decent amount of that farmland for cities unless we started chopping down our remaining forests. Not like it's possible for many of them to go to Scotland, most of it is mountains or lakes. You are right that it is possible with proper planning but i think it would stretch our needs a bit in terms of food, water, energy and services and also put too much pressure on our land.
