Knowing what you know ,from the post office to smart motorways (that are anything but) the migrant crisis et al there a malaise amongst the ruling elite unable to act or make any decisions and coming up to an election where whoever you vote for buggins wins.

I thought about it for a while, then I thought, wait it isn't Mr and Mrs average who completely fecked the place up, it is those who they voted for, who promised not to feck up their lives. So if anyone should feck orf, before they can do even more damage it is politicians and civil servants.

...and go where?
Many of the problems we are having are not unique, they are global problems.

I was tempted twice ,once when a good mate went to Australia in the late 70's and again when a job came up in Canada a couple of years later .I just couldn't leave the family so stayed put ,especially the Mrs who got the right hump that I was even considering it . Knowing what we do now wouldn't make a lot of difference to me ,the opportunities were always there in the UK even if I didn't take some of them .
Today's young folk maybe not so much and I wouldn't blame anyone if they upped sticks and buggered off to pastures new

The first thing to try is to stop electing Tories or Labour and expecting any change . Why are the British people so reluctant to vote for the smaller parties? We need to get rid of the Fifth Column in this country that's deliberately trying to destroy the country.

If there were somewhere else that wasn't suffering the same issues, then yes.

I had the option, when i was 33, to emigrate to Australia. I scored almost three times the required questionnaire score of the time, not least because as Australian telecomm company wanted to spinsor me and a dozen others….
I wish i had. But had we, Ralph, Dad and mum world have died without seeing us again, and i think It’s fair to say Moira’s mum dying while we were on holiday back in 88 impacted her decision not to leave this shithole
Worth saying my daughter has successfully escaped the worst of Wankford by relocating to England.

At least the sun shines in Spain. 🌞 Yes but you would be flipping burgers 7-days a week just to feed and put a roof over your head. I saw a little investigation into how it is for the ex-pat Brits down there. The trouble is there are more sellers than buyers. Too many had the same idea. Spain is hollow in the middle of it. Now one lives there except for Madrid. It's pretty poor as well and socialist. |

Canada or New Zealand for me. I wish I could have emigrated to either.
