I have a couple of friends that are in the process of emigrating to Canada and I also know of many other people that have upped sticks and left the country to other climes.
We have a great country with superb heritage and culture but is there any promise of British people wanting to stay in this country, or will our bureaucracy and silly ways all cheese us off?
To emigrate or not to emigrate... that is the question?

Having lived in Canada, the USA, Australia and Romania and being British I can say with confidence that the UK does not have silly bureaucracy compared to other countries! Its great here!
This is something you do not find out until you have lived overseas! We love to moan about the UK but most of us have no idea how fortunate we are.
I had a wonderful time overseas but I am far happier to make my permanent home in the UK. I think anyone is a fool to emigrate fully without knowledge of the country they are going to! Its always nothing like you expect it to be!
Its a great dream! But lots of Brits eventually come home because the grass is not always greener!
If you wish to emigrate my advice is to get a job in the country first and see if you still love it after a year. Having said that the United States is a country I would happily live in because I love their culture and the people. The others are not for me.
You need to explore!

If you choose to emigrate, you must be prepared to live in a different culture and not take ours with you.
I lived in Buffalo, New York, whilst at university, just across the border from Canada. I adapted to that culture.
I also lived in Italy, France Ireland (where I was born) and spent most of my life in England.
I easily adapted to each culture and learnt sufficient of the language to be polite
England is where it's at for me. If I were 40 years younger, I would make the same choice and know I was right to do so.

Ideally, you should try do change there and drive the Socialists out. If not, you may have to leave. We have the same problem in America with the liberals, but so far we've been able to keep them under control.

nicely i could deport any immigrant who isn't a citizen for committing a serious criminal, and as quickly as I say serious, I propose rape, smuggling drugs, or theft. working as a cleansing woman below the table isn't unavoidably going to hold usa down and that i like my much inexpensive nutrition in Chinatown. it could easily be a competent thought to place greater regulations on immigrants, which includes no longer granting them 2nd substitute rights. in the event that they like a gun, they might desire to grow to be a citizen. Secondly, in the event that they like to artwork right here they might desire to pay taxes regardless, different clever it extremely is lower back below the table for some dirt much inexpensive hard artwork. additionally some surveillance that way we can sparkling out who's fueling the underground and who's doing us any stable. i could despite the fact that if make it much less complicated to grow to be criminal via fact it lessens what share illegals we've, yet lower back, the 2nd isn't theirs till they're electorate. undergo in ideas, we are geared up off of immigrants. There desires to be much less paperwork for legalization yet greater protection and residency ought to be granted by way of a attempt in elementary English. the time-physique to grow to be criminal is to short for the constrained availability of legalization, so might desire to fastidiously boost our quota. additionally I see no reason our citizenship attempt ought to be written in different languages. i do no longer think of a wall is going to slow issues down adequate to make it very well worth the money. to boot, the folk who artwork their way around partitions and fences are a similar people who reason hassle, and not all immigrants are hassle makers, so a fence could merely carry lower back powerful workers jointly as criminals sneak by way of undercover.
