Why are so many people leaving Britain?

Question

So many people leave Britain for various reasons. I'd like to know what the most common reason is.
I've thought about leaving with my family to live in the US, my reason is i can't afford to live in England anymore, ironic isn't it I am English (have been for over 25 years) but can't live in England.
The government have made it harder for the lower and middle class but made no changes to the rich.
I sometimes wonder if they are trying to get rid of everyone but the rich and make this a HIGH class society.

Answer 1

It seems the Government want us to leave..so the new-comers to this country will work for less and pay all the inflated taxes. All they want are tax payers so more money can be thrown at foreign wars and the ever increasing police power here in the uk.They forget that our ancestors fought for this little ol island.They will close your swimming pool yet sanction the building of a new mosque.They will sanction blocks of flats to be built yet disregard the infra-structure. They ignore that the towns and cities will be jammed with traffic and the souless ghetto,s being created. This country will be flooded with tax paying cheap labour,they don,t give a hoot about the British people anymore. The small trader and pub owner is a thing of the past. Recreational facilities are being neglected,they want you to concentrate on your employment and ability to pay taxes.A new visitor can come here now and have the same rights without putting anything in to the system. The Government has ignored all the scams that are being used...like claiming to be a skilled worker. Its a dire situation which no Government will ever sort out. We,ll let the foreign millionaires come here too regardless of how they accumulated such wealth.Its everyone for themselves now!!Alot of people are struggling now to keep up with it all..

First you're able to evaluate that maximum folk of Europe as an entire disagreed to an ecu over 50 years in the past and a huge minority disagree with it at present. Why? Becuase it might create inbalances contained obtainable. human beings care much less with regard to the gaurauntees of political stability and greater with regard to the account balances. And for stable reason. once you enable and volatile united states, no count if or no longer it is technologically helpful and upwardly cellular, it must be militia volatile or have another situation and while it is foreign places funds is devalued, all others face danger. Many political researchers have confidence that the very appropriate of individual united states states is they're protection nets, combating no longer purely ailments, plagues, wars, social instability, economic instability between others, yet ensures wholesome opposition. Britain although has each little thing to lose from transforming into a member of the ecu. that's probably the healthiest economies interior the region, allowing unchecked immigration will do harm to the social fabric, besides as bankrupt interior of reach institutions and the already overheated social healthcare. reward being, what? Political power for the few elites? How is that efficient to the individuals? it is no longer.

I think the main reason is probably immigration, people think they can get away from what is happening to this country, I'm afraid unless your ultra rich that won't be possible. I also agree with everybody else. Taxation has become a fixation with New Labour. People are encouraged not to work by the high benefit schemes available and although the ultra rich moan about tax they are in a position where they are not really affected.

The ones who suffer the most are the actual working lower middle classes which represents the majority of workers but unless you are resolved to bring about change in the poling booths the problems we are experiencing can only get worse.

Our reasons:

Basically same as yours. We want to upgrade to a larger house with some land in a more rural area. Can't afford to do that here.

The main reason we want the above is for our little one...she's almost 10, has never played out other than in our own back garden and has no friends locally as she was allocated to a school 30 mins walk from where we live. Even if she did have someone to play out with around here (Not a lot to choose from judging by what I've seen lurking around the streets here) I'd be reluctant to let her as its just not safe anymore. The local paper confirms that every week. I just want something better for her than this.

Answer 5

i want to leave because of the same reasons as you. Born and bred in this country and i cant afford to buy a house even though i have worked most of my life.
Also the road toll thing they are thinking of introducing which is basically pay as you drive thing. So really paying road tax AND the new tolls wouldnt you be paying for the same thing twice?
Also the pay as you throw they are also thinking of introducing. First they make y ou wash your tins etc before you recycle them but now you have to pay per bin bag. Again paying for the same thing twice because i thought thats what part of the council tax.
Also us that are born and bred here are now told we are NOT allowed to celebrate christmas incase it offends other religions. Im getting sick of being told what i can say to who and i think there will be a point where people will say "enough is enough". I hope that day is soon. I predict a riot . all i have to say is watch out mr brown.

Answer 6

Don't think they want to leave.
Due to circumstances.
Were just jumping ship.
With the dead Mummy risen from the graveyards with two hands stretching out creaking and rattling with skeleton of skull and bones blindly searching the way back to the graveyards in bringing them along too were scaring the hell and living daylights out of the misery of the folks back home.
The blunders and slip-ups with human errors being expose with time after the mystery of us-911 in making a mess out there.

Answer 7

Goverment mismanagement, overcrowding, high tax burden, our best countryside being dug up and nasty rabbit hutches (executive homes) being put up in its place.
Britain is a haven for the greedy minority, who then proceed to ruin everyone else's lives.
The hidden agenda is to force out the average worker and replace them with migrants who will work for 50p per hour. In this way they can control wage rises and thus inflation.

Do you really think that the government gives a damn about you? You are a taxable income generator, that is all.

Out with the politicians, out with the EU, out with the immigrants, close our borders again, reintroduce old fashioned punishments at school, reward good behaviour and progress, invest heavily in youth clubs and other youth activities, to give today's youth an alternative to hanging around in gangs on street corners, take down all those "no ball games" signs down on the village green, show the old moaners that a noisy game of cricket on the green is preferrable to broken windows and gang culture.

Above all sack all the PC idiots that have got us into this sorry state of affairs.

Answer 8

The govt don't mind us going as we are used to having too high a standard of living.

The poles and Asians etc will come in and do the jobs for a fraction and they don't really mind where they sleep.

Cheaper workforce = more competitive

I know a lot of people who have gone or are going and its mainly because they worry what the future holds in the UK for their families.

Really Sad!

Answer 9

they cant afford to live here the tax is so high , as is the cost of liveing as aa whole. not to metion the EU has so degraded the quality of life here its just not worth the effort. gordon brown and his henchmen are about to make it even worse. as the tax rise's and the pay slows . the exodus will soon pick up even more speed. even if the rich were the only ones to stay it wil soon become even harder for them to survive. england at thisrate is on its way out of first world status . ammerica laughs at little briton i am beginnibging to see why it is so. we have become pathetic and complacent . as we are taxed into poverty.

no leadership no national pride left. most of all who wants to live in the laughing stock of the world

Answer 10

I have news for you. It's the same way in the States. They nickle and dime the middle class to death. The only way to have anything here is to be dirt poor or filthy rich. The middle class always pay.Hope I didn't disappoint you.
