My living abroad was more a lesson for personal growth than it was for achieving happiness. The hardship will still be there just in a slightly different way (ie:through the spouse that will need to adapt to change and the support needed with it). What you are supporting is an idea that the UK needs to stand alone economically, which is a cute idea yet impossible (because not even you support yourself and need help earning money) -- and you also support vile, and viscous ideas of THE OTHER, of xenophobia, and of racism, and hatred, and UKIP, all of which started talks of Brexit.

Monthly rent for 85 m2 (900 Sqft) furnished accommodation in NORMAL area 1.696 I'm out of here in a few months, heading back home to the sun, soca music, and lovely people, but I'm truly sad for those who have to stay here for whatever reason, being told daily they have faces that don't "fit", and living in fear, and festering in anger over daily dealings with racists.

There are lots of things that could be better in the UK, like the NHS funding, but overall it's a fantastic country to live in and even though I'm a foreigner, I felt obliged to step in and add my 2 cents :). I was born in the uk to italian parents who came over in the 50s. My eyes *roll* when White EU Nationals scream racism when British people call them out for treating their country like a hotel (with many paying hostel rates). :). I still remember wanting to go from Bristol to London and prices being close to 150 for a return ticket. Because they read too much of the Daily Mail and have come to believe that Mohammad who owns the corner shop and Sunita who works in the local Indian aren't law-abiding, hard-working citizens but terrorists, despite having lived here longer than some of us have been alive! The "immigrants who are here to steal the jobs"? I would imagine that I am like Hermione and have studied and can do it all!

I was born in the UK and have never been made to feel alienated, but even I find this country ignorant and hateful at the best of times. Typical patronising, sneering, condescending arrogant attitude of a leftie remainer voter. Anyway long story short because I could reference many examples of me seeing racism and ignorance, openly and behind closed doors from other people and my self included too and learning from my own mistakes and developing as a person because we don't always have positive influences in our lives and at times I have held points of view that I would be ashamed to think about now.
