You left Britain because you didn’t like where it was heading, almost

Comment on General Election 2010 Poll Results by David.

You left Britain because you didn’t like where it was heading, almost everyone who does well for themselves in Britain doesn’t have your view of packing up because of a few problems. Is it really the reason you left or was it money, better standard of living for the same income etc…?

I make a lot a money on the Internet and could live in any country with decent broadband (actually could continue my business with dial up, but… :-)) and I have no plans to leave Britain because I like living here. Since all my income is Internet based (I wouldn’t need to find work) we could be FAR better off in lots of countries, could live like a king in a place like India/Pakistan, but I like it here and more importantly my wife likes it here (ultimate decision maker on where to live :-)).

You said before you now live in the United Arab Emirates. UAE is a strict Muslim state, that’s where a British couple have been imprisoned for kissing in public

I can say for a fact I wouldn’t last long there as I’m always kissing my wife out in public and would never move to a country with such backwards thinking.

Did a little research (very basic research) and sounds like for families earning over £20K a year you can live in UAE for the equivalent of a mansion in Britain, including the costs of food and amenities etc…?

Seriously Sarah, other than it being cheaper to live, do you think where you live now is better than Britain, do you not like the freedom to say kiss your husband in the street?

When commenter’s bitch about Britain I’ve asked a few times which country is better than Britain and so far not one of them has mentioned another country that’s better. Admittedly they’ve tended to be BNP commenter’s with the “Britains destroyed and we need the saviour Nick Griffin to save us all from the traitorous commy/lefty Lib/Lab/Con alliance” :-)

Maybe you’ll be the first and say UAE is better than Britain and why?
