      Most of the developed world like Australia. New Zealand or Canada actually has a worse housing crisis than the UK

      I wonder what might have caused depression of wages and increasing competition for houses. It’s almost like labour supply and housing demand have both grown a lot. Very strange.

      Where can we even go? They took away freedom to work in Europe. Unless you have family connections or a highly skilled job, you aren’t going anywhere. Housing crisis is worse in some places too.

      Then they will find out it’s an epidemic across the developed world.

      It’s almost like we operate under a global economic system that prioritises capital growth for the largest multinationals.

      Editing to add that governments have also outsourced their services and sold off a lot of assets in pursuit of economic growth which has left them beholden to these large multinationals.

      Grass is always greener mentality among the youth. It’s always been there. Social media and the seemingly constant bad news about the UK makes it appear the rest of the developed world is doing better has increased it.

      But where do you go?

      Other English-speaking countries in the developed world actually have strict immigration standards and are off-limits for most expats, except for Ireland (under the Good Friday Agreement.)

      We kicked ourselves out of the European Union because our countrymen and right-wing press complained so hard about Eastern European immigration that we ended up with Brexit, so Mainland Europe is mostly off-limits too.

      The only places you could realistically go are in Africa, South Asia or South-East Asia, and that’s if you’re willing to do TEFL.

      Its almost as if the rich keep hoarding all the wealth and everyone’s fights for scraps while blaming each other.

      And certain people profit of that.

      And they will make the most of the EU freedom of movement, being able to relocate to another EU country without a visa. Oh, wait…

      I moved to the UK from Ireland a few years ago, things arnt perfect but I like it here.

      Foreigners want to immigrate while native Brits want to emigrate. Replacement theory is real.

    12. Old_Requirement591 on

      So Brits want to leave the country for the same reason others enter the country.

      I wonder if they will receive the same reception abroad

      And they will still keep voting for some crook who promised to“ stop the boats“.

      Easily solved. Get a job in the public sector, decent pay rises, gold plated pension, no risk of job loss, very generous sick days

      I have left the UK for Hong Kong. My salary here is higher than it was in London, my company covers accommodation, and I’m paying on average about 10% in tax. Life here is good and I can accumulate wealth.

      Hong Kong is also incredibly safe – there are no illegal migrants and no refugees. 90% of the population are Chinese.

      Can’t recommend it enough, I left the UK three years ago as a 22 year old graduate and I am earning around 1.8x what I would be earning in an equivalent role in the UK with little to no difference in cost of living.

      It’s easy to uproot your life and go live in a semi developed country 

    18. hgjayhvkk on

      Absolutely they should flee the UK. It doesn’t make sense whats happening at the moment.

    20. Jeffuk88 on

      Well don’t go to Canada, just spent 10 years there and it’s worse. Wouldn’t wanna live in America. Australia is pretty far away. If you can speak the language maybe Europe would work but pretty much everyone I meet these days from other countries are complaining about the same thing

    21. Salt-Respect7200 on

      Yep, was there for 10 years, my parents visited and said it was ‘like stepping into the future’, no mum the uk is just firmly stuck in the past.

      I could buy and sort a house in Portugal for less than 100k….
      Whilst working remotely for a UK company… Much easier than it used to be. I can see the reason, UK people need better wages when the house prices are so insane…

      I needed to read this. I have been getting more and more depressed and distant living in the UK.

      I am not even young.

      I actually have a pretty good quality of life. But recent events and changes have made me feel increasingly isolated and I feel a complete lack of worth.

      I am crushed by the realisation that my only use in my life is to work, make other people money, and die likely before I reach retirement.

      Even if I make it to retirement I will have nothing. My pensions are likely to be worth fuck all so poverty is all I have to look forward to if I am ever allowed to sit down.

      It’s getting very hard to find motivation to do anything.

      This has made me realise that it wouldn’t change if I went somewhere else. My value is mute

      Careful what you wish for. Let’s not let migrants in the country 10 years later. Wait hold on why are our the best and brightest leaving.

      This society can think it doesn’t want certain elements but will be shocked when their youth doesn’t want to live in a mono cultured country!

      Nothing will change if the ultra rich aren’t taxed, and we are ruled by them so good luck.
