Leave UK for good.....

[Avrils_knickers]

i know a few people i would like to leave the uk

Definately Australia for me or Canada.
Very beautiful places.

Noone should be under illusions how difficult it is though. Any country out of Europe worth moving to around the world has put a "no vacancies" sign, so it is extremely hard to move out of the UK unless you want to go to into Europe. It isn't like in Eastenders, when they just disappear to America for good when they feel like it. It has taken my dad 5 years to get his green card (although it only took my brother 1.5 years. Go figure), and many, many thousands of pounds. My mum still isn't sorted although she has a right to remain for 2 more years, and since my L2 expired, I don't have anything at the moment. I hear Australia is even harder, although Canada is easier allegedly (considered moving there a while ago), but still isn't that straight forward. Unlike us, they'll only take people that are fiancially self-supportive and have enough qualities to enrich their country.

As someone who works in Staines, I have to agree with you

Just out of interest, when does Chav hunting season start?

I just wondered how you are feeling about the UK at the moment? Fed up with us possibly joining the almost inevitable EU Federal State. Have you had enough? Maybe you can't imagine living anywhere else? Maybe you are hanging around and just "waiting and seeing".

Where would you go and why? Or why would you stay and not go?

Maybe this has been discussed before but a search on "emigrate" and "leave UK" shows nothing....

I want to move to the USA if i could, not because of immigrants or the EU but because everyone keeps moaning. People are voting for racist partys we have a media that is so out of control they print lies so much it has become meaningless. We have people blaming all there problems on immigrants without taking any of the blame for there ****ty lives on themselves (.i.e "we can get a job because of those people" but they dont think it might be because they have on education)

Look at euro 2004 we have been booing national anthems and other countries. We seem to have no respect for other races or for our own countries and I am getting ****ed of with it

But at least you realise what the governments are taking.

As opposed to what method? VAT that's already added for you? I think I know what I prefer.

[SMHarman]

VAT yes, but the less intelligent of our community think the shop gets the £1 and does not have to pass 13p of that to the government in tax.

In the US it's explicit.

Perhaps, but can the less intelligent work out what the final price will be?

True - perhaps both should be printed.
