Yeah but what about now? Living a fecking ridiculously expensive country which no longer 'owns' any sunny annexes to escape to isn't much fun when brassic Shirley?

Even worse when the indigenous populations of the former colonies want to compete on your own miserable rain sodden soil.

Still, we've got the Falklands eh. And unless Sheep get ICTs then the job market is ok. Obviously there will still be a few who come over here to marry welshmen I suppose.

It only got out of balance because of Mr Blair and his army of clueless feckwits.

They have gone away now so hopefully things will gradually get back in kilter. Perhaps.

Well they're ****ed to start with. Don't they know that (eurozone) Europe has the Euro? And there are plenty of Euro shops here already...

To add the to that it is mostly Scots that are to be found living abroad rather than the stay at home southerners. The way it was during the height of the empire, the Scots were the adventures of the crowd.

Well they had too because Scotland was and is poor and tulipe.

Scotland is part of the Britain that created the empire.

What about Scotland?

Scotland joined England in a union (when they realised we were buying up all the nice warm sunny places )

The thermometer hit the late 20's last week and without any ozone layer over the country you're guaranteed a good fry.

As it's been said on here before, if you're going to be poor you might as well do it somewhere nice.

Can you image being poor in the UK.
