Can you explain what you mean about the situation in the UK? What is it you’re concerned about?

I’ve heard a lot about a potential civil war, riots and economic crisis.

It might be better to get your news from people actually in the UK instead of Elon Musk’s clickbait.

Some isolated cases of civil disorder, tbh I think in many other countries the volume of people in the incidents wouldn’t be enough to constitute a “riot” and it was really mostly done & dusted in one weekend.

As for economic crisis, im not sure what you mean, the UKs growth & GDP/capita is basically moved in line with the rest if Western Europe & just recently announced stronger than expected growth figures.

thats good to know cuz i really wanted to study there and there’s been a lot on social media and other stuff abt this so i just want to make sure if this was correct information.
As an American expat in the UK I feel fairly confident in saying the US is much closer to a "civil war" than the UK.
