Duane (express.co.uk) BRITAIN is facing a mass exodus of people looking to escape the crime and grime of modern living.
The country’s biggest foreign visa consultancy firm has revealed that applications have soared in the last seven months by 80 per cent to almost 4,000 a week. Ten years ago the figure was just 300 a week.
Most people are relocating within the Commonwealth – in Australia, Canada and South Africa. They are almost all young professionals and skilled workers aged 20-40.
And many cite their reason for wanting to quit as immigration to these shores – and the burden it is placing on their communities and local authorities. The dearth of good schools, spiralling house prices, rising crime and tax increases are also driving people away.

Skilled labour is obviously an advantage, but so is speaking the English language. Most countries are harder to get into if you don’t speak English. UK plc simply isn’t fighting hard enough to keep its people. Some are telling us they are fed up with living in this country. Even business people are saying they’ve had enough.
“They’re saying ‘I can’t put my children into the right school, but if I move abroad I can’. Most people are very patriotic and don’t want to leave. They’re almost terrified about it. But they say they just have to.
“It’s a shame people at the top don’t recognise they’re not doing enough to retain highly skilled workers in this country. A lot of them are quite young, and they’re not idle. They just can’t see a future for themselves in this country. They want to get married and settle down and buy homes, but they can’t see it happening here.
“And time and time again they are saying to us they don’t want to be seen as racist because they are quitting because of immigration. We tell them of course they’re not.â€(more…)
If we do not get a handle on ILLEGAL immigration in this country, you will see the same thing here. Ask any Californian.

You know there are tons of Brits going to live in France, it’s a better life, yada yada, escaping Britain crime etc.
There are also tons of French going to live in Britain, it’s a better life yada yada.
So I don’t know.
I personally like Britain, I’m Spanish and am escaping Spain to go to Britain (hopefully soon, and guess what there are tons of Brits coming to Spain) and think part of the problem is the newspapers and media harping on every single crime, The Sun, Daily Mail and making it more than it is. The immigrants are swarming us!
And I think it’s the British society in general not just immigration. Everywhere many Brits go, they do cause pandemonium. Doesn’t matter if they are educated or not. This is not all Brits of course.
But anyway.
been born and raised in “safe” Greece. I live in the “high crime” country Ireland. I have never noticed any kind of crime against me. On the contrary I hear every day from the Greek news “Crime, love crime, teenage crime, drug dealing crime, murders… my God my head is spinning.
Safe France? Did you hear the Paris riots pal?
Nowhere is safe. There are people savage and wild everywhere cause good and bad goes togethere. This is the balance of our world
for gods sake, it’s the express. a right-wing, xenophobic, rabble-rousing tabloid. it’s sole purpose, like other tabloids, is to whip up hysteria over immigration, youth crime, hoodie yobs and whatever the hell is on their current agenda. please do not take anything it says seriously.
Well I actaully live in London and can say first hand that crime is much worse than 10 years ago. Knife crime is specifically bad in London A lot to do with this increase is uncontrolled immigration from 3rd world countries and political correctness gone mad. If anything this has hurt our community more as we generally cannot afford to live in the wealthier areas that have been untouched by immigration. Lots of educated black people are leaving London to move outside the SE or overseas to have a better life for themselves and their familes.
With a Fabian Fascist Government in the UK, that they encourage the indigenous to leave by doing nothing to keep them shouldn’t surprise anyone.
The British Government bends over backwards to islam, since the days of George Bernard Shaw another Fabian, wrote in 1936 that within 100 years islam should rule England, nay Europe!
Shame the people are too apathetic to realise where their Faux new labour party is taking them.
Fabians= new labour= Brown Blair and co!!
EUMED..Handing over Europe to muslims-fact! EURABIA.
Snip from this weeks Brussels Journal…
In 2004, Erdogan warned/threatened European Union leaders that they would pay a heavy price in escalating violence from Islamic extremists if they rejected Turkey as a member and confirmed itself as a Christian club. Turkey is a member of a Muslim club, the Organization of the Islamic Conference (OIC), which works to bring the entire world under sharia law, yet Turks don’t face escalating violence from Christian extremists because of this. The same Erdogan has repeatedly rejected the idea that there is such a thing as a “moderate Islam.”
