Anybody else considering leaving the UK now Brexit seems to be going ahead?

I was thinking of Australia, Canada or the USA. Although I would be considered as a skilled worker, it's tough getting a job without going there for an interview.


Imo, Paris is a dirty, overcrowded, overpriced city (albeit cheap compared to London). The problem is that the French median wage is about €1,600/month and a flat costs about €900/month there. Finding a real job is also quite difficult.

I'm really not 'blaming' the working class, I am blaming the upper class people like Farage and his mates who take their anger and misdirect it away from the cause of all the economic pressure on them in favour of simplistic solutions like the current one.

It just goes to show who really has the UK's best interests at heart, those who purport to stand up for the UK do one as soon as things get a little turbulent.. good riddance

Dream. crushed.

It's not the finance. People don't recognise the UK they grew up with. They feel alienated and unwelcome.

Personally I'm counting on #indyref2 to get me out and hope the NI and Gibraltar come too. Maybe even London if we are really lucky!!!

You'll be waiting a while, 55% of Scottish people aren't ready for another referendum according to recent polls

Sorry, but we have 6 million unemployed workers. What did you want to do?

Oh please, get over yourself. The stock exchange is an indicator of the performance of an economy. That should very much concern the working class. They're not separate things friend.

How much is 6 million as a percentage of the overall workforce? At the moment I have a great job in London the details of which I'd rather not divulge in a public forum (it has to do with sector-specific strategic management, policy and standards) but the reality is that I still have not figured out what I want to be when I grow up.

But that line of thinking leads to the conclusion that they are idiots who can not think for themselves. Doesn't exactly give much hope for democracy or socialism. I mean you yourself basically think they shouldn't be able to vote with your reaction to how they voted in this referendum.

What you say has a lot of weight, but then... I don't let the actual racist xenophobes off the hook (not saying they are all like that) as if they are mentally incapable of not being racist. I'm not going to patronise them. They should bloody well organise and cut own on the racism and generally educate themselves. There is no reason why they can't,k working class people managed it before under much tougher circumstances throughout history.

In the wake of Brexit, I fundamentally believe the UK will embark on a long, slow drop into irrelevance. State your career field and what nations you are looking at moving to. The big brain drain will now strike old England.

I'm personally evaluating moving to New Zealand or Australia, my career field being as a ships navigation officer.
