As good as it is here, it will gradually go under it seems everyone is coming here, its becoming a sad,, sad position for australians, food is on the rise housing department houses going to them before we get them, they are here for 2 mins and get a house.. we have to wait 5-15 yrs they get the pension, in 2 yrs, so now our living prices are going up...and we are paying the price for this now...many australians are changing,we fear more, and the rise of youth become somewhat angry more... its really sad, we never had gangs and if we did they were silent, people are really turning into something alot of Australians dont like... we may have great weather, but slow thats changing to, as Australia is growning the wheather is too. our water supply is going down because visitors / new australians dont watch how much they use.... its endless what I can say... so yeah it was a beautiful place once now its becoming something I dont reaconise anymore... : (

As a once wannabe emigrant to OZ (wife refuses to go) with relatives over there and having visited Oz ( Australia) several times . My own viewpoint is that life in UK is in considerable d decline with rising crime and overcrowding, coupled with a sense of no identity by most English folk and with OZ being a much wider ,open and English speaking country with a similar culture. It represents a place of safety and interest, It also has a definite policy of only allowing desirable immigrants in . This sis admired by many English folk who are upset and dismayed that our own government refuses to acknowledge the English peoples desires to have the same strict immigration policies in place.personally I would emigrate tomorrow knowing what Oz is like form Sydney to Ayers rock and most of the South coast, be under no illusions it has drawbacks IE health costs etc but overall the Quality of life is just so much better.

I think Australia appeals to them more as it's more laid back lifestyle - plenty to do and see .... hey you only live once - why not make a big move!

Cos the weathers far better and it's a far better standard of life.Get yourself over there now!In Victorian times it used to be a penal colony but if they'd had any sense in those days,folk would have gone over there and left the crims back in the UK!

Better quality of life, nicer weather, cheaper.
Wouldn't do it myself but I don't blame those who do.

The weather is the biggest factor

maybe it is the weather or employment opportunities.

The weather is much better here than the UK, and my partner is from the UK also.

UK is going down hill fast..3 of my friends have gone out there in the last 4 years..

because it's a hot country where people speak English, and it's not America

Because UK has no future.

Because the UK is a sinking ship and those that stay will drown in a sea of poverty, over work, stress, violence and corruption.

I feel exactly the same as Chris at Hornchurch, I lie awake at night thinking of leaving this sinking ship. I could have gone to Oz with my kids dad 4 years ago but because my boy had been in high school a year I wouldn't move him, now, of course, he doesn't want to go so i feel I'm trapped here.
I must admit though Frances S has given me food for thought. Maybe now there is no bloody haven for the simple reason there's TOO MANY BLOODY PEOPLE and most of 'em are in England, no wonder we're sinkin'!

Because they're an ex-British colony and a similar culture and have the brains to not let any old trash move there.
