But, Why British people? UK is, in my thought, one of the most wealthy and powerful, effective countries in the world. You have fantastic living standards and good nature, aren't you? Why do you want to go to Australia?

Re: Why British wants to go Australia?
We moved for the weather and the outdoor life . But i think the main reason is that we wanted to bring our son up so that he had some good opportunities. I think a lot of people who have never been to the UK thinks it's all little Villages where you can leave your door open every night and there's a bobby on every corner ready to cuff a little ragamuffin around the ear when he goes scrumping ! Sadly this is no longer true. Try crime ridden rubbish strewn ****hole .Thanks for the thread and allowing me to get that off my chest ;)

I think one of the main reasons for Brits to emigrate to Australia is the historic links between the two countries. The British established Australia and the bonds are still strong. Australia is still a Western nation and not an Asian one. Britain and Australia share not only a common language, but also strong cultural, economic,political and religious links - they are also still predominantly white, Anglo-saxon societies, although Asian infuences are coming in. The majority of post-war migration here was from the UK and I guess the current situation is a hangover from that.
Everyone is welcome though.

Re: Why British wants to go Australia?
Lots of Brits that failed to make a success of themselves back home often look at emigrating to other English speaking countries.
If they were successful then they'd probably a) not move at all b) move to another European country, learn the language, embrace the culture... So thats why so many Brits end up downunder. |

and the government has let in far too many people from other countries whose values are opposed to those of the native population. |

An interesting insight into Asian life and a good indication to why Asians living in the UK are far more focussed on their education (generally) than most black or white kids and also why so many Asian seize opportunities a leave others in their wake.
I suppose we don't realise how lucky we are, I am going to be able to have more family time and withdraw (if only a little bit) from the rat race i'm currently in. From my own observations in the West, a child does not have to work much harder than their contemporaries to be among the top three in their class. A happy child almost always becomes a happy adult. |

We moved over because we could, because we had a fancy for a change and because the climate in the UK was doing me no good at all. |

I'd rather ignore all that and just holiday there enjoying the good things. |
