The Aussies are just trying to take your money off you at a time when Brits are looking for ways to escape the depression in the UK. It costs about two thousand pounds to get that permanent residency visa.

The exchange rate is very bad for you to come here from the UK now. Also, there are a lot of job losses here at the minute, especially in banking. Most Brits that come here end up going back. Why bother wasting 5 years of your life? Stay there, the last thing we need here is more Brits.

How easy is it for Australians to emigrate or to come here on contract, versus us there?

Ancestry Visa, I would think a large amount of Aussies have UK ancestry. Not many Brits the other way!

As the years go by, fewer and fewer qualify for the ancestry visa.

In response to the UK public's dislike of seeing the country flooded with immigrants it is now harder for the ones from Australia and New Zealand without a British grandparent to get in.

Despite the fact that they speak English as a first language and fit into the culture seamlessly.
