Default How do you feel about living in UK?

How do you feel about living in the uk?

perhaps out of ignorance or fear, for me there is nowhere else I want to live.
My son who is coming up 24 does not feel the same and is talking about moving abroad as he feels the uk is poo

I think the UK must be one of the best countries on the planet to live. Anyone who thinks otherwise are clearly blinkered.

My only complaint, although this possibly only applies to Scotland, is the weather.

I agree with the above. In fact, I would go further and say that Suffolk is by far the best place to live.

Maybe 50 years ago Britain was a good place to live,But now

The country is bursting at the seams,the infrastructure is collapsing,and every one is to concerned about being PC.........

We are one of the most developed countries in the world in terms of education, healthcare, technology, welfare, infrastructure, economy, social development etc which make it a great place to live. It's not perfect and there are many things I dislike about this country, but I'm reminded by the $1000s my American friends spend on healthcare insurance or stories other gay people being stoned to death in Africa that, actually, here in 21st century GB, it's not so bad after all.
