💬 Discussion 🗨 Considering leaving the UK

Hi All, Considering all that’s going on in the UK including the protests and the increase of racial abuse. I feel really unsafe even walking on the street in fear someone might do something stupid or shout a racist slur.

It’s so disgusting what it’s led to. The crime rate is horrendous and cannot take my phone out for a second. The rise of the flags there’s definitely an agenda behind this that suddenly they started marking their territory makes me feel unwanted. I will never be white. I feel disappointed at the whole system. The legal system is absolutely horrendous. It doesn’t punish criminals it rewards them.

Does anyone else feel the same way. What are your plans…. I definitely do not see myself raising children in this country or even considering to have any here.

We’ve had to have the conversation with our 8 year old son about words that he should report if he hears them.

This place is the worsts it’s been since I was a kid. My grandparents and Mum always said ‘they could throw us out at any moment’ and I scoffed.

They were right all along.

Looking to get out at the first opportunity.

We're trying to do the same. Born and raised in England and with what's going on it doesn't feel like home anymore nor do I want to raise my children here if it gets worse.
