I am treated like a stellar class citizen. Monthly rent for 85 m2 (900 Sqft) furnished accommodation in NORMAL area 1.696 Germany thought about it. As a writer, I thrived during rainy days as melancholia hit. You see, books and stories can have a wonderful influence on us all. How can I decide??? It took me years of hard work before I could even begin my application as a British citizen. We saved Europe from Nazis and agreed to defend Europe unconditionally after Brexit. 2) Not sure about Bulgaria but in Romania we have many famous Black Romanian celebrities and even have a Palestinian MP I heard the US is a wonderful country and despite its issues, if it makes you feel like home, then it is home. As Napoleon said, the British are a nation of shopkeepers. As for Portugal and being Portuguese born, I can see that is now a fashionable place to go. We also didn't think it would happen but were pleased that we had left after the results were announced! Dear awesome British people out there. Someone is always in a hurry. The above are the results of my experience and my experience alone. Agreed! Good luck with your new adventure - it sounds like you've got a lot to look forward to! What country is perfect, aye? -Safety- its NOT safe here, my 2 year old son was attacked by teenagers but the great British police is HELPLESS. What do you describe in terms of the hate towards foreigners and outright xenophobia you have faced its home to me now in a way I fully understand. I have never lived in UK. If you think the only "British" dishes are the Sunday roast, fish and chips, pies and bleedin toad in the hole then you're a bit of a divvy. The food is good here if you know where to eat. I got approached by a Greek man who had a PHD and wanted to try and find ways to use it in a commercial context and he wanted to work for us for free to get some experience. I apologised and ran out crying, feeling desperate and marginalised. Senility is an ugly condition.

Britain's infrastructure cannot cope with the population. Yet, almost 9 Million (!) Learn more. Violent, dirty cities. In the Balkans we also have pljeskavica or plecavia which is a kebab burger. To say its all crap is just completely idiotic. Reading this gave me a peace of mind. But there's always hope. If you have good infrastructure, it costs money to build and maintain it. The main reason is that I see the EU as being an impossible project, led by weak consensus politicians with no grand vision for economic growth. it was a very long sounding Greek name, and the expression on his face just changed as if to say "ohh no can't really do that" you know kind of wincing and shrugging sort of expression. It was a strange experience. From Downton Abbey, the UK became more of a Harry Brown. Hence, the low growth and high house prices in London and SE. Its a hard working and ambitious country, which is not for everyone. The weather can be a bit much and I heard Belgium doesn't come with much sunshine either. Tolerant please don't make me laugh. I would have thought it's exaggerated, bitter and mean. I know I am not perfect, but I am trying hard to become better at it. Always. So disappointed was I, and I tried to make myself fit in, but I couldn't. This means that I was born abroad, came here and worked very hard to integrate myself to the point I would be accepted and deemed to be called a British citizen. I only just came across your article. [12] This is widely regarded as a backronym. We are much happier out of the uk as it is now over populated in general. It's not true about the weather at all! Adopted countries I've lived in were always a ticking reminder that I don't belong and that I'm just a temporary alien working or studying there for a limited time. Thank you so much for your honesty and strength. However I found people to be so friendly. Hi Miranda, thank you for your comment. It's interesting. But good for you for taking on a new path, that's always exciting! [6], Opinion is divided on the origin of the term. Im born and bread British and I hate it! Why?

Hi Brian, thank you for your insightful message. One of the biggest differens that i saw are the streets, in England they are very clean, and in Chile you can finde a lot of garbage. Like Vinz said below, let THIS sink in too mate. Most ordinary British people outside of the chattering classes in liberal metropolitan London know they are the Jones who can no longer keep up with their richer Aussie Jones cousins or the Singaporean and Hong Kong Tans. The difference here is that a small number of bigoted people are using racist rhetoric to manipulate the masses. Are used to see my country as a liberal looking and pleasant place. And everything about th weatheryes, yes, a thousand times yes haha.

Britain was once very much once of the shining stars of the Enlightenment. The mess that UK is today is due to the failed policies of successive governments. I have rights. I will go further and suggest there is a lot of naivety amongst younger generations around the world. I mean come on Brian, what do you mean by "people like the author". Thank you. Would you come and live in the UK or would you rather take the road somewhere warmer? Despite looking great on a Downton Abbey episode, this is not the place I see myself living (and many British friends are moving as well). I am now 51 and after 19 years as a teacher have the last few years become fed up of the British and my way of life. It was a difficult decision for us to move back from the UK , and I would be lying if I said we do not have second thoughts about moving back again! My wife and I can't wait to leave London next year. Enjoy your sovereignty, Mark. Public transport is expensive in the UK, but it is because our planning laws are tough and protect the delicate environment here and peoples wishes. No one worked there who wasn't English. So many people prefer going abroad when there are so many wonderful places to see within the country. God help us.

Munich has virtually no chavs, as long as you don't hang outside the two main stations too late and go to the Kultfabrik (soon-to-be-demolished club complex outside of the centre). You can live in a place like Bristol for example, where the cost of living is much more affordable, thus enabling you to have a decent life in the UK. I've found people angry and bitter, jealous of our "success" so shunning us, mad at the whole world and blaming the new family down the street rather than reflecting on how their own attitudes drive down the areas we live in. No one rolled out a red carpet when my parents came to this country to work in the beloved NHS. I was always welcomed as an American, many years ago. That changed everything. I personally think that is more noble. We have less of a poverty divide than such likes as the good old USA, and better transportion than the vast majority of Europe (which I have travelled all over). These are the people who if we invite here and we teach them how to adapt, are going to work hard to pay taxes, and maintain the lifestyle which every born and bred British citizen believes they deserve. I miss who I was when I was abroad. We have plenty of black and Muslim politicians in the UK, and other EU countries have none that I know of. The South East of England is *bursting*.

America has visionaries like Elon Musk and Peter Thiel advising Trump. Thank you for posting this. Obviously!
