I fear that this time it’s terminal. I’ve been advising my friends to leave the UK for over ten years. To paraphrase Peter Hitchens, “I’ve never seen a more doomed society and I lived in Russia during the fall of USSR”
- jamiegreen 4y agoand go where exactly....
- stavros 4y agoI feel bad for people who voted against Brexit. Now they have nowhere to go, even if they do want to leave.
- cjbgkagh 4y agoTo paraphrase Peter Hitchens again; “If you can’t figure that out by yourself then you are too wet behind the ears to make it” It’s a big world out there with a lot of variety and the appropriate destination depends on a lot of individual factors.
- jamiegreen 4y agoConvenient way to avoid the question. Where would you go?
- iampims 4y agoAmsterdam/Netherlands.
- alkonaut 4y agoAnywhere. The benefit of a decent education for all and fluently speaking a global language. The situation for any young Brit is much better than for most European peers who face the same question.
- jamiegreen 4y agoAh anywhere, the land of milk and honey
- alkonaut 4y agoWhat was the question? “Where would be better?”, or “who would accept me”, or what is it? The answer would differ depending on the question. But obviously if you speak English and have a decent UK education and passport you are in a pretty privileged situation when it comes to working “anywhere”.
- stavros 4y agoWhat does this mean, in real terms? Descent into poverty, or what?
- HL33tibCe7 4y agoI recall a Question Time episode many years back in which Hitchens, upon being asked “what should a young person in Britain do?”, replied “emigrate while you still have the chance”. It received many gasps and boos at the time. I wonder how it would be received now.
