I did, I planned on going to Canada after living overseas in various places over a 5 year period.
Problem was, by the time I got geared up to do it the NOC list changed (entry requirement for skilled visas) and I got locked out, unless I change career.
My advice to anyone considering it , is to get on with it
Also, you don't need to revoke British citizenship or anything, you can go dual nationality.Comment

Pressure of circumstances led me to watch the age deadline for Australia (45) and then New Zealand (55) pass me by. Still Canada was always possible, and with my fluent French I could even scrape enough points without a job offer.

For years?
The tories were using the 'brain drain' as a reason for lowering taxes back in the early eighties if I remember correctly.

It's not only the UK that has these issues. Over here in NZ, as fast as they can import new people from India, China and the UK, their own are leaving for Australia.
