I recently met a lady from Britain who immigrated here about 8 yrs ago. She just got back from a trip to visit family and said......wow, she will never go back. Her sister is trying to immigrate to Australia now for the same reasons.
They are fed up.

I’m sorry to hear that. Did she say why she was fed up? Admittedly, the standard of living is much higher in places such as Australia than in the UK and has been for many, many decades. A very small property in the UK will cost the same as a large one in places such as the US and Australia. However, I’m very proud to be British and wouldn’t ever leave my country.

Plus, in a general sense, if immigration is apparently forcing British people to up sticks then why are so many of them moving to places such as Canada, France and Spain who, have bigger immigrant populations than the UK?
