Where to immigrate to from UK?

Posted by reejiness@reddit | AskUK | View on Reddit | 15 comments

UK no longer feels like home and we're considering moving out, at least for a few years to see how we feel about it. We're a couple with a baby. Keen to move to a single country for stability instead of traveling/moving around. What are some countries you'd consider moving to?

Once I've completed my ACCA I'm heading too Qatar or UAE Insha'Allah

What’s that like? Are you there now? I’m thinking of the same but I’m not sure because I want kids in the future and schooling won’t be free.

I grew up in several countries in the Middle East. No free anything! Education, health. So get a job that covers those things otherwise you'll end up a servant.

The countries to consider moving to are the countries that will take you.

Yeah I'm not sure how easy it is to just up and move these days? A friend of mine moved to Spain with work, and even with good reason for the move they still had to jump through countless hoops.

Ireland is the easiest due to the common travel area. However they are experiencing housing shortages, so Dublin especially is very expensive.

Nah not so easy anymore as its become a hotspot for people fleeing the UK. Ireland area also experiencing a lot of immigration issues too.

I mean come on. Play the long game here. Elections next year. We'll be back to EU in some capacity within 4-5 years. It's just a rough patch. Be positive and all the best to you and your family.

I know people like to rag on about the UK but finding a more stable country without some sort of EU work / visa lined up would be a challenge Most Brits I know moved away chose Australia but you can't pay me to move there so there you go

Why not Australia?

Too far from pretty much everywhere else, even domestic distances are quite gnarly, Australians have a reputation of being racists (which kinda checks out from my interactions with them), it's too hot and full of critters that I'd rather not know lurking around Honestly, main reason is the distance. The close second is that I have YET to meet an Australian that wasn't a loudmouthed bore

Also because it's far away from everywhere going anywhere costs a ridiculous amount. Even domestic flights are expensive, or going from Aus to NZ.

Canada could be an option, rumours that they'll start accepting asylum seekers from the uk if things get much worse here, so you might not need to find a visa/work first.
