Sweet Jesus, it really is time to bail. Any recommendations on where to go? I'm hearing the weather is much better in France and Spain.
Is Scotland on board with this dictatorship malarky or are they fighting it? I didn't see them kick up a fuss about the online safety bill which made it to law, which makes me think they aren't fighting it.
Yeah but how do we leave without a crap ton of money to buy our citizenship in another country?
I was considering moving to Scotland if they vote to leave the UK and rejoin the EU
I honestly dont know how most of us can make a move happen. Its a shit state of affairs.
I hoped that Scotland was going to be our get out of jail card too. I'm still hoping.
You don't have to buy citizenship in the United States or Canada. Both countries are also fighting internal fascism, but it's not as bad as what we're seeing in the UK.
Being a permanent resident is essentially buying citizenship since you're not allowed to work, living in those countries without working isn't cheap
Every immigrant I know has a work visa. They work and live here. Their lives are basically the same as regular citizens except they can't be unemployed, they have to update their visa every year, and they can't vote. After 7 years on a work visa you can apply for citizenship in the United States.
France is right behind the UK right now. It's not as bad yet but will be in the near future.
Macron in France has seemingly had similar fascist quivers running down his leg.
