Your comment doesn’t explain why people would move from the UK to Spain or France. It’s hard for me to understand the appeal of that kind of move — I guess the cost of living would be lower, but things like taxes and economic opportunities have got to be worse, and the Islamic problem is just as real in these countries.

Regarding France, it’s mainly retired Britons moving to the Bretagne part of Northern France. It’s their version of Florida retirement paradise. Same with Spain, where they are moving mainly to the sunny islands.

You know, like New Yorkers moving to Florida, or Midwesterners to Phoenix and San Diego.

The weather is better, great scenery, and still close to home.
