Young Brits Would Love to Leave: But the Option of Living and Working Abroad Has All but Disappeared

  1. All good points raised. The cost on the youth and the animosity towards youth are both symptoms of a broken wealth inequality.

  2. > As with so many things in this country, the best life opportunities will be in the hands of the wealthy who can afford the new costs.

    Has been and will be just about forever everywhere. :p

  3. I disagree with Brexit but applying for a visa isn’t particularly hard. Even before loads of UK citizens moved to Australia and the USA with things like Erasmus being underutilised in the UK in comparison to elsewhere.

  4. Damn really? It’s odd considering I see a bunch of posts everyday on r/newzealand about how young people are moving to the UK b/c house prices are lower and wages are way better lmao. I personally would like to retrain into tech and move to the UK or US.

  5. If you have marketable skills and want to move, you can apply for a visa somewhere. It’s how most of the world operates.

    If you don’t have any marketable skills, you should probably work on that anyway.

  6. This is utter rubbish. If you have skills (and that can be anything from bricklaying to brain surgery) you can move practically anywhere. This article is aimed at people who want to use their barrista skillz in Berlin instead of Birmigham. They should have stayed in school.

  7. If abroad means in the E.U then yeah it’ll be harder, for the other 90% of countries the only difference is the £ is weaker atm so it’ll be harder to get set up with in the beginning, it’s not an apocalypse

  8. It’s almost like other countries asses immigration on skills and financial stability and job contracts.

    Who’d have thought it.
