Citizens Flee the UK in Droves America take heed. For us there will be nowhere to run. It is essential we must learn from Europe's disastrous mistakes. Not later. NOW. Don't fool yourself into believing their immigration situation is different than ours, cuz it aint.

Michel, our French man on the street, sent me this article and added, "it's the same old song in France."

And from the Polish standpoint:

Poland works to stem labour drain.

and is now seeing a dramatic increase in British people applying to leave the UK.

More proof that the surge is working. - tom

You are correct in your heads up America comment, many of the more affluent, better educated and younger families have been quietly leaving for a couple decades now. I read an article a few years back outlining this, they called it a reverse brain drain. Looking at our decaying society and political corruption/incompetence, I can’t say that I blame them. If you have money and young kids it might be something to look at, but most of us are just praying for leaders to emerge so that we can halt the rot and turn the country around. Those leaders though are gonna have to be very smart, very loud and have a huge pair of rocks! IMO

Look in the mirror America! It’s happening now!

[ken21]

not only is it immigration,

but it’s allowing immigrants the upper hand.

melanie phillips in her book “londonstan”

describes how british laws allow immigrants to verbally attack

britains but if they respond they are guilty of hate speech.

In recent months, we have received as many as 4,000 requests in a single week from people who have had enough of Britain and want to get out."

A similar situation is coming to America soon if the southern border is not closed. But our problem is, where do we go to from here? At least the Brits have a commonwealth of attractive nations they can escape to when things get too bad to bear in the home country.

I can't think of any other country that I would want to live in that would accept fleeing Americans, but if the US is swamped by Democrat-voting Hispanic socialists, and I believe the globalists in power in both parties are determined to make it happen regardless of what the American people want, the US will not be the same country that we have known and loved. The hundreds of thousands of Americans who have died defending America and it's unique people will have died in vain if the US becomes just another poverty stricken 3rd-world hellhole like Mexico and most of Latin America.

I sympathize with the dirt-poor, hard working Mexicans who are victimized and exploited by the fabulously wealthy elite 5% who run Mexico's corrupt government like a slavery era Louisiana sugar plantation, but how will lowering the living standards of the US to near the same abysmal level as Mexico's help either nation's poor and powerless? Mutual misery isn't any more bearable than solitary misery.

My personal recommendation to all Britons and other Europeans of a conservative bent who wish to emmigrate to the US.... Do it illegally. Don’t bother with all the red-tape. Our politicians are hell-bent on legalizing illegals and my guess is that within the next 5-10 years, it will happen, regardless of the will of the American people.
