You have probably seen this before, but here`s a refresher

Sad thing is my automatic reaction when I saw the heading was "getting out of it", lived stateside for 4 years and tried to move to Oz (not enough points) this country is going to hell in a handbasket and I dont really know what we can do to save it tbh :(
Sorry to say it, but I agree with mbilko, the country is going to hell in a hand basket and i think that it`s too late to save it :( .
I tried New Zealand, but didn`t make the points, but my mate on the other hand was forward thinking enough to marry a qualified nurse and is settling down nicely at the moment (lucky b[at]ts*rd!!).
I`ll encourage my kids to travel, with a view to emigrating when they get older (if anywhere will let Brits in!).
Gotta agree with he above, my old fella keep telling me to up bags and move to Canada!
If only....!

You`ve got a talking penis?
I think that would probably score highly with the Canadian immigration authorities.

Get rid of the government. No not just the useless pillocks currently in office. The lot of them.
I`m not suggesting anarchy but they all have their hands too far in our pockets, their noses too far into our business and their size twelves stamping down on our necks.
This country runs largely in spite of not because of those who purport to run it.
I do not want to carry a little card to prove who I am, I do not want to pay tax every week so that Margaret bleeding Becket can have a vase of Roses shoved in her annex and neither do I want a CCTV camera shoved up my a**e to monitor my every movement.
You may gather I am pig sick of the whole crew of self serving bureaucrats.

All kinds of things make this country grate. You should check your spellchecker.

That made me laugh for the wrong reasons.
I consider myself an optimist, albeit an optimist with cynical tendencies and a dark side that Lucifer himself would find a little creepy. (Perhaps you've noticed.) You don't normally associate cynicism with an upbeat pov. But I have exactly that combination and will defend it.
