      You are right, but you have to admit it is a lot to take in once you start to see it. I can still remember 1970.
      The soviet union were atheist communists
      Britain was nominally Christian
      An ounce of gold cost £17.50
      A bag of chips cost sixpence (2.5p in decimal money)
      50p was so valuable they had a note for it (ten bob note)
      The 5 bedroomed house I was born in sold for £6,000
      Today Russia has returned to Russian Orthodox.
      Britain barely has any religion at all, and will soon be majority Islam
      An ounce of gold cost £2100 over 100 times as much.
      A bag of chips costs £3.00
      The smallest note is now £5 ten times the face value of the ten bob note.
      Houses on that street sell for £1,500,000
      Nothing happens by accident.
      I only console myself with the knowledge that this train wreck we are living through was supposed to happen 50 years ago.
      But weird stuff kept happening to put it off. Britain was almost broke and as the Arabs raised oil prices by 400% North Sea oil came on stream and shielded the economy for 40 years.
      The internet has opened the eyes of millions to the international nature of what we are seeing in a way that would have taken years in libraries to do before.
      Where there is life there is hope.

      This is everywhere.
      Just think at this.
      To have something you have 3 options. To make it, to get is as a gift, or steal it
      NOW, think at the case of this guy. What is he making? Nothing.
      he sits in a chair, he is a drone. sure, he has a function, but the function adds very little value in the system.
      And he want a high living standard. FOR WHAT?
      Today, the most value is added by machines.
      Working people are just drones that add little value.
      But the value is not distributed back to those contributing by actual contribution, but by conjecture, often offered by power.
      And just think at the fact that this guy is in top 1 percent as income globally.
      and he is not satisfied. WHY?
      Because he wants high standard without actually deserving it.
      Why he should have standard for sitting on a chair all day, while a guy with a similar job in Bangladesh is earning ten time less than he?.
      Sure, politicians are at fault too. But they arose at power from the mass of guys like him, wanting more than they contributed.
      And life in a city is expensive because a lot of people is contributing to your high standard.
      Just the other day I saw an advertisement for an island for sale, 10 acres, nothing on it but grass, like 25000 price.
      so consider moving there and making a living. Farming is the only option.
      Let do the math. how much that land can produce, how much can you save after you eat, in order to pay for the land and for the tools you need.
      Yeah, half a century ago, in London you could buy a house with 2 years income. But those houses were built by immigrants willing to work for peanuts. And also machines. And politicians were not stealing as much as today. But immigrants got smarter, they ask more, politicians got greedier, and here we are today in a dystopia.
      And who is at fault? Precisely this guy wanting high standard living. Imagine him and all those like him wanting an 9 square meters studio. How much will cost mass produced?
      Just the other day I saw a guy that bought a farm in Appalachians. He is earning next to nothing. training horses, and fixing horse shoes but he pays 30 dollars for his dog food, 20 for food he cannot make on his own, and 90 for a phone landline.
      AND HE IS HAPPY AS HELL.
      Just have a think.

      Mass migration is responsible on every metric, it's not even up for debate. Latest report out states every low skill migrant will cost the British taxpayer 465,000 up to retirement age not including dependents. Data they don't want you to see because it implodes they're narrative. Seems we've imported millions of dependents... who'd have thought.... weren't we told they're all brain surgeons and physicists.
      Forget racism, this is pure economics. Every migrant arrived in the last 30 years needs to be audited, and if they are not a net benefit to the British, then it's a one way ticket I'm afraid. Cya.

    I left England 6 years ago (at the age of 47) when I realised that without my soul-less, London office job, I couldn't afford to live there. I was working a crap job just to pay bills and had practically nothing left at the end of each month.
    But my God, leaving was the best thing I ever did. I now live in Spain and I'm in love with my simple life. Surrounded by nature, animals, peace and tranquility, gorgeous little home (which I don't have to pay rent for because I'm taking care of the place long-term), with mountain views, no neighbours, low cost of living, away from the noise that is the UK. I know without a doubt that I will never go back to England. HOWEVER, I know I got lucky. For many people trying to earn a living in Spain it's just as bad as England when it comes to the "system", paying taxes etc. The true realisation needs to be that the system and taxation itself is fraudulent, we were born free and educated (programmed!) into servitude and slavery without consent.

    I think you’re mistaken about one thing: the politicians do know exactly what they’re doing. They simply don’t care about the average person, let alone the poor. They care about themselves and their wealthy friends, and their policies are designed to enrich them. 💰 I’ve seen some statistics from the U.S. - if a policy benefits the rich more than the poor, politicians are much more likely to support it. We’re not really living in democracies; we’re in plutocracies where the wealthy and oligarchs hold the power, while our voting rights are just a smoke screen. We need to reclaim our rights.

When I want to use the healthcare system I do not bother to use the NHS but I just travel back to my home counry. Much easier, much more affordable. I get everything done there : investigations, screening, operation, dental care. People in Hungary do not understand why I do this.

If you're working at a job that pays min wage, you need to have at least 3 roommates if you want to save money, average rent in some areas is $2500/month for a studio though you can find some places that go as low as $1500/month though youll probably be commuting 3+hrs a day, and even if you have a high paying job ($50+/hr), you probably can't afford a home unless you're dual-income since average townhouses in the nicer areas sit at around $650k+.
      Most of the friends I have that are engineers and software engineers have had to live with their parents for multiple years to save for a down-payment, so if you aren't being paid at that rate you probably can't afford anything unless it's in a not so nice/not ideal area.
      Then LA and SF aren't as nice as they used to be, you're pretty much guaranteed to see a few homeless camps any time you go anywhere in those cities.
      If you want to live in Cali, just be prepared to pay out of your ass for housing for crappy conditions unless you know someone willing to give you housing for cheap. Best of luck to you if you decide to move here, though I honestly can't recommend unless you have high paying skills/jobs

You can work like a dog in a factory and get paid peanuts today, and the cost of living has gone through the roof. The rates of childbirth and productivity have gone down because of these reasons people are sick of working just to live, let alone buy cars and houses. I'm disabled now, and my life has changed drastically. Even now, I feel like the DWP is constantly causing me stress and worry because of government cuts due to health issues.

(Both women and men obviously but men dont get pregnant and these types definitely arnt around to raise the kid.)

      @IllegalHelios Mate, I'm saying this gently, not to argue, but you SERIOUSLY need to do even just the lightest research on our birth/replacement figures. We are facing a monumental demographics crisis coming down the line. Japan are 30 years further down the track and it's coming home to roost over there. Maybe your tiny bit of Wales is different, but I would be thanking the lord that is the case, rather than boatloads of illegals bundling into the valleys to replace the shortfall.

      ​@@IllegalHeliosYes, I'm sure that happens but you're looking in the wrong direction if you are worried about your taxes being unfair. People on benefits make up a tiny amount of the budget each year, in fact around £20 billion of benefits go unclaimed every year. You shouldn't be blaming the state of the country on them. It's the rich who lobby the government to ensure they don't pay their fair share and manipulate the media to report on issues such as benefits and illegal immigration to distract from the real issues.

      On this island, we dont get 4 equal seasons here. Winter always comes early & stays the longest out of ALL the 4 seasons we're suppose to get.
      So British Gas is ALWAYS MAKING a profit out of us living in the UK.
      More charges
      If you drop or pickup anyone up from the Airport theres a charge, if you get caught short on a yellow junction box- theres a fine/charge, if you go over the speed limit (accidentially) theres a fine/charge, if you stop on a yellow line or red line and get camera'ed- theres a charge/fine.
      Petrol- as a tax.
      I'm Born & Bred in the UK AND I TOO am VERY, VERY fed up of living here, I have been thinking and want to leave ASAP.
      WE ARE paying for WARS that we are not involved in, we are propping up Ukraine for what reason I do NOT KNOW.
      They aren't our neighbours, what have they done for the UK and when does our money stop going to them?
      When their war is over I guess the UK is going to send our money from the UK to rebuild it.
      HOW IS UKRAINE going to pay the UK and the rest of the world back???
      The israeli war AGAIN what's that got to do with US- the UK and the UK taxpayers??
      Theres NEVER a REAL, solid, understanding reason for why the prices of things have gone up- COVID & Ukraine IS ALWAYS the pathetic reason!!

      @@HolgerJakobs You’ll be surprised by how many people speak English in "Eastern Europe," especially younger generations, from ages 10 to 45. Navigating with just English is often quite easy.
      The key thing you'll need is patience-take time to listen and understand.
      Here’s a tip: if you assume someone's English proficiency directly reflects their intelligence, you might get a blunt response. In this part of the world, we don’t rely on fake smiles or sugar-coat our words. Most of the time, we say exactly what we think, and we’re direct when asking for what we need or refusing something. Politeness here isn’t expressed through excessive "please" or "thank you"-it's conveyed through tone and attitude. You won't hear endless "thank yous" or "alrights." Once a day is often enough for us!
      It’s also worth noting that while countries like Romania, Bulgaria, and Poland are often referred to as "Eastern Europe," they are more accurately part of Central or Southeastern Europe. Romania, in particular, is a Latin country, not a Slavic one, as many Westerners mistakenly assume.
      Finally, a big no: don’t make the mistake of equating someone's English skills with their IQ. Speaking down to people just because your English is perfect won’t get you anywhere.

      UK had manufacturing then. Eastern Europe was under the curtain or trying to modernise after regaining independence. In the 50s the commies had the eastern europeans and the UK was still manufacturing. China was not on the radar. Japan started to take British jobs. Later Korea and Taiwan and HK would take British jobs. Now China and other Asian states take what's left over. And those countries also innovate and do their own R&D so there is less demand for UK know how, as they develop their own. The old days are over. The UK had an edge but the tech genie is out of the bottle and now everyone can start to manufacture and develop.

    I'm a Romanian who's been living in the UK for over 14 years, and am planning to go home next year. Living costs have gone through the roof. Trying to buy a house here was a humiliating experience, where estate agents would ask me outright if I'm a cash buyer (Because who doesn't have 200k in their pockets in their 20s, right?). I feel sorry for all the Brits, especially the elder generation, who were brought up in a country that no longer exists. Finally, I don't want my children to be spoonfed this new PC atrocity, which is now spreading like wildfire in UK educational institutions. I genuinely hope the UK manages to overcome grow a pair and look after its people. Because I don't think their grandparents stormed French beaches in '44 for this

Eventually they get better and are normal folk. And lovely people. You would walk straight into a NHS health care job. I guarantee it. 3 days a week is all you work, long shifts. It's also a great laugh most of the time. Get onto a working age acute ward. And there is loads of scope to get an easier job in the community. It just might change your life. Pop down to your local ward, ask to see a manager and ask for a job. Start working on bank. Or they may just set you on. Honestly. That's the best route. The old fashioned way. Once you say you work in a prison, you are in. They will love you. Most folk can't hack it, but it will be a doddle for you.

Bought my 2nd property (selling the first) for £25,000 in Derbyshire in 1986, a cheaper area. This was a brand new 3 bedroomed detached house with a lot of land. My Royal Navy wage at the time was commensurate with house prices. I don't envy people of your generation (I have 2 x daughters born 82/93 respectively. They are struggling and I have had to loan them money occasionally for things like car repairs. House costs swallows up a lot of their earnings (they both work but not in high paid jobs).

      Ignorance breeds ignorance. The government reflects the state of the people. We are reaping the fruits of the actions borne of people believing that there is no objective standard of good and evil, and so justifying acting however they feel. God has been thrown out the window by most people, and so too we see the lack of an objective moral standard reflected in government and their policy. Corruption is rampant, taxes excessive, many government programs bloated and ineffective - why? Because there is no wrong to he who believes that he is god, and gets to determine what is right and wrong for himself - and because there is no wrong to these people, they can act selfishly and destructively toward their fellow man without risk of judgement for their crimes. Go read the Bible, this is nothing new. It happens again and again and again. It is the fruit of sin. We need to come to God and be cleansed by Jesus - so that we can legitimately love one another instead of just this blabbering "love" espoused by most of those in government to justify their and our poor actions.

      Born the same year as you and agree. The 70's was not a great time economically, but for many around the middle and below, we ended that decade better off than we started it. In hindsight, the 80's and even into the 90's was like throwing lighter fuel on to a damp squib of a fire. It flared up and all looked great for a while, but we burned through the oil money, sold off nationalised industries etc. Eventually we ran out of national "family silver" to sell off! Industry mostly gone, leaving finance as our main strength. And propery development.
      When owning things is rewarded more than inventing things or making things, people aspire to own things and stop making and inventing. So you end up with nothing to sell and a grifter economy. Everything gets monetised, because what else is there? Everybody gets more selfish, more inconsiderate - which I've also seen in my lifetime.

Its utterly miserable and I don't want to live just barely surviving my whole life anymore. The wealth gap in this country is the most extreme in Europe and second only to the USA when looking at the G7, whilst at the same time investment is lowest being almost non-existent outside London and large projects like HS2 that largely benefit only London, so people feel like there is just nothing to survive on, we dont make enough to support ourselves and there is no aid available to help supplement that. And yet people like Starmer ignore all of this to pursue ridiculous policies routed in prejudice and ideology rather than data, like the smoking ban, that whilst undoubtedly will save the NHS some amount of money, no matter how small, it will cost a lot too, cigarettes and tobacco are some of the most highly taxed products and the UK gets a lot towards its budget from the sales of these products, so ultimately he's just taking away a freedom whilst having no net gain

    All the above is bad enough, but what makes it even worse is how toxic the social and political atmosphere of the UK is now - granted we have America to thank for a lot of that but I've never known a time when things have felt so divided and on edge.

The quality of life, ability to save, and access to healthcare are far better compared to the UK. I spent four years in China and was surprised by how the Chinese have surpassed us in many ways. Moving back to the UK now would be the worst decision for me.
    I visit often, but every time I return, I notice a decline in the standard of living. On a recent trip to Liverpool, I was shocked to see so many stores now have two high-visibility security guards at the door. Many of my friends still live with their parents or have bought much smaller houses in more deprived areas than they grew up in. None of them save any money, while I manage to save £2,000 per month without sacrificing my social life or hobbies.

      I like your can do attitude. Good on you. Although it’s sad to hear good people have to leave the UK while the government focuses on helping non-Brit’s more than their own people. The USA has also destroyed itself and the standard of living. If the Brit’s (or Americans) cared to fix things - we would focus on what’s driving the lower standard of living and what we should do legally and politically to fix it. And what about wealthy famous people. Why don’t they pipe up? I hear that Noel from

    I came in london in 2012 to do uni and start a career because italy was on its knees and the uni system there is messed up. London was so far ahead in comparison to Milan, and pre-2016 this city was a literal ball, we still had fixed rates on uni and the pound was so strong it felt like a joke. In 12 years i've seen this country fall almost lower than italy was in the early 2010s, it's just different issues but some cut even deeper because of the magnitude of this fall.
    London is still a unique place but you either have a top class job (and hours) or you're working to pay your bills...
    a lot of friends left over time, those that are here are clearly unhappy to some extent, and while we're getting paid well and we built a better life here, better than what italy could have offered, it's not worth what it was a few years back...even on my first salary it felt I had more freedom than now.
    i've been battling with the idea of leaving for a while now, but this place became home for me in a way and it's really though cause London has so much to offer still. I love the brits, I love londoners, I love all the british culture and trust me you're a lot more similar to italians than you realise for some aspects. I respect you guys a lot, but we're all getting screwed the same.
    I'm honestly thinking of pushing through another year or so, become a citizen (cause it's a waste not to at this point, and I kinda want to keep a bond to the UK) and either go back to italy (which i'm not ecstatic about, but family is family) or find another country, but starting again at 33-34 is not as easy as in your 20s.

    I left school in 1999, and back then even if you were on a low wage, you could still afford to buy your own home. Wages in general were good no matter what you did for a living. Food was very affordable and bills weren't too high. Apprenticeships were aplenty and unemployment was low. Then sometime during the mid 2000's, everything began to change. Wages stopped increasing, bills began to rise faster than before, and people that i knew seemed to become less happy than they were before. Don't get me wrong, everything wasn't great in the nineties but things have definitely changed for the worse for working class people over the last twenty years.

    It’s very much the same in Australia… it’s sad to see such beautiful countries with such hard working people fall so quickly. My mum said she bought her 26 acre farm 20 years ago for 180k… it sold 10 years ago for 900k. Now it’s worth 2.5 million. I truly don’t know how we are supposed to get ahead in life with those kinds of numbers.

But that doesn’t mean inflation isn’t ridiculous. Petrol, housing, rent and groceries are at insane levels and yes the dream of buying a home at a reasonable price to “get ahead” is almost non existent. We should talk about what needs to change.

      @ I’ve lived in a third world country mate, I wasn’t raised in Australia. I’ve seen how bad it can be. And I can see how Australia is quickly heading towards a country of red tape, impossible housing, Shrinkflation and big brother. Stating what IS happening isn’t complaining. I don’t bury my head in the sand and pretend everything is peachy and just because I’m comfortable that the rest of Australia is too. Families are having to live on the streets, some people are having to work two jobs just to pay rent, surviving isn’t living. Just because you and I are just fine doesn’t mean there aren’t things that need to change. Being comfortable isn’t a state you want to be in. And comparing countries horrible financial status isn’t the goal. It’s talking about what can change in YOUR country. And the only thing I personally CAN do is vote, and talk about it, and hope the rest of Australia does too. But look, clearly we don’t see eye to eye. I want better for Australians, and you want us to shut our mouths and be comfortable 👍🏽

    I'm from Brazil born in 1983. When a kid and teenager, the UK, USA e Australia were like dreaming places do go. I had the opportunity to live 7 years in Australia and was making good money over there, however cost of living there is insanely high. Once got fired and took me almost 4 months to find a new job and I was running out of money so quickly, my savings couldn't follow and I got into deep depression, thank God I got a new job...
    When covid started the country became a prison and was disgusting what happened there, so I decided to come back to my country. At first, It didn't seem a good idea, however now, after a couple of years living here, I was able to buy my dream home! It's almost paid off! In Australia it's like a nightmare to get a one bedroom apartment. So glad I came back!
    Don't know if I'm right, but for what I see, it seems those first world countries are not what they were in the past and living in third world countries became like a good idea. Saw so many western people living in countries like Thailand, Phillipines, Ecquador, Argentina, Colombia and so on... Maybe that's the new direction now....

      Yep. I'm 59 yr old Aussie. I'm ok, but seeing this country become unaffordable. I feel sorry for my kids and grandkids. Seems the 80's was the golden era. We lived well on one trade wage, paid all our bills, bought a house, went on moderate holidays, and my wife could stay home to raise kids. Now, households with two good incomes struggle. Part of the problem is the debt cycle. People borrow for everything. Our philosophy was, if you can't save and pay for something outright, you can't afford it. Houses excepted of course. But don't go into debt for cars, holidays, furniture, phones etc.

    I think the problems in the UK are much more apparent to those that travel or have spent extended time living outside. I was shocked the first time I went travelling, realising how much further money goes, the standard of living, the smiles on people's faces. Since then I left my job, left my rented apartment in the city, converted a van to be fully off grid and worked seasonal jobs, travelling for years at a time around Europe and beyond. It's been 15 years now and I have no plans to go back to renting or living a conventional life as I see how miserable people are around me. I havnt paid an electric/water or gas bill in all that time and I have more money than I ever have and that's with all the travelling and basically having money to live a comfortable life. While I live in my camper (which is essentially a tiny house with running hot water, heating a king size bed, a little bathroom, an oven ect) it's still 100 times better than sharing with flatmates because you can't afford the bills. Every year I return to the UK it seems even more depressing. Even more backwards. I see the world progressing and moving forward while the UK slips into decay in real time. Unfortunately still, as a Brit, especially since Brexit, I do have to keep returning to earn money but leave to spend it so that I am actually getting some value for money and life experiences. I have learnt however that life isn't always greener on the other side. You talk about survival, go to a poor area of Bulgaria in winter and look at food prices. The maths is mind-blowing. Every country I have travelled to has it's downsides and sacrifices have to be made to live retain a decent quality of life. Yes bills and rent and a fraction of what we pay in the UK, but food prices make up for it in alot of those countries when comparing relative earnings but I totally agree. The balance of life in the west has become impossible and we are forced to make tough decisions that our parents never had to. I agree that the glory days are over for the UK, but some countries never had it as good as we did in the 80s/90s. I think knowing how well our parents had it, excabates our feelings of bitterness and longing while people in the 30s in other countries saw their parents struggle hardships we can't even fathom as Brits. It's interesting. I think finding some acceptance is important as nothing seems to change in the grand scheme of things.

After everything is paid out I'm living on tinned fish, a bit of veg, dried noodles and cheese, that's pretty much my diet and all I can afford. Can't afford subscriptions and recently cancelled my Amazon prime, can't afford new clothes and definitely no holiday. I'm not sure what the solution is other than to move to a country that actually wants to look after it's citizens because this country doesn't. My mum when she was alive used to say she was glad she had the life she did because she could see how bad things were getting, born in 1941 she saw the best of this country. The 50s and 60s seemed like a fun time with her stories she told.

At the end of the day we the vast majority of us are no longer needed in this world. They want us gone ASAP. The global population is being culled. What you all queued up to save granny for , four years ago is killing off people as planned. Heart attacks, strokes and turbo cancers and smashing fertility rates down. That backed up with putting up the price for everything i.e. fuel to kill us slowly while we freeze, high food costs, high house prices so the majority cannot afford to build a home (nest) to have a family. The changing of our eduction system aimed at breaking our way of life and family unit, through the demonisation of Christianity.. They want us all in same sex marriages so that we dont have kids. The constant daily pumping out off chemicals by planes in our skies of barium and aluminium to create cloud cover to reduce the so called carbon, which is no doubt not good for our health or famers growing crops. And the worst thing is where do you move to avoid it because it happening in so many places....
