#' Clean and Munge UK Demographic Data
#'
#' @description A function that imports UK demographic data as two seperate files,
#' with demographics from 2001 to 2015 and demographics from 2000 only. Demographic data can be filtered
#' by country, and either saved to disk or returned to the R enviroment. Summary plots can be returned in
#' order to check the data. Data can be downloaded [here](https://www.ons.gov.uk/peoplepopulationandcommunity/populationandmigration/populationestimates/datasets/populationestimatesforukenglandandwalesscotlandandnorthernireland)
#' @inheritParams clean_munge_ets_2016
#' @param data_path A charater string containing the file path to the demographic data.
#' @param demo_2000 A character string containing the file name of the demographic data for 2000.
#' @param demo_2001_2015 A character string containing the file name of the demographic data from 2001-2015
#' @param countries A character string, indicating with intials the countries to include in the
#' dataset. By default only England (E) is included.
#' @param save_name A character string contaning the file name for the data to be saved under.
#' @param save_path The filepath for the data to be saved in
#' @param theme_set The ggplot theme to apply to the summary graphs, defaults to theme_minimal
#' @return A tidy tibble of demographic data by age between 2000 and 2015 for the specified countries.
