“Brexit is having a wee in the middle of the room at a house party because nobody is talking to you, and then complaining about the smell.” -
Thank you for contributing to the success of the British economy, but I think you are going at the wrong moment. Post Brexit things will get even better here

Well done mate and welcome to the UK.Originally posted by yetanotherbob View PostAn immigrant myself. Used to call myself indian but not any more - rather, I am from one of india's own unwilling colonies.
Britain gave me a safe place, opportunity, fairness, and hope for which I am grateful.
My personal values align with the values of this country (or what I learnt of them as I did pass the citizenship test).
The idea of the EU single market had appealed to me, so had voted remain.
But now that it seems to be heading for some turbulent times, I feel a duty to stand by this country.
Its just that the IT career has caused a lot of burnout. I wish I could afford to buy a small fully self-sustained farm with a hut somewhere away from cities.
And I don't know what I should go 'back' to either. As such, I am sure Britain will emerge stronger and better, but, next few years are likely to be uncertain.
(By safe, I do not mean I was an asylum seeker despite coming from a millitarised conflict area - I came here on a highly skilled visa and later naturalised. It has been a long journey)
We'll have a tough few years ahead of us but it'll be worth it in the long run!Comment

They should invest in sanitation and water treatment plants rather than high caste IT startups. Last year I was in Kolkata and did a trip up the Brahmaputra and although some of the scenery was magnificent the general cleanliness and pollution left much to be desiredOriginally posted by molsang View PostMoney is tempting in new start-ups companies

Would be handy if a few more had the same idea to make room for us Brits that may have to return around the time you plan to leave.Originally posted by molsang View Post-- I have a fixed date in mind by 31st Mar 2019, I will be back to India. That will be end of ten years freelancing in UK. Family is already back, well settled. Anyone else having same plan?
I'd conversations few of my ex-colleagues and 95% of them want to return back to India at some stage.
