Biggest reason I can think of for emigrating from this country is its utterly sh*thouse and depressing climate.

I left in 1991 and came back 3 yrs ago for family reasons. The whingeing about immigration here is utterly laughable, not to mention as hypocritical as it gets.

As far as emigration goes, freedom and mobility of labour, coupled with easier access elsewhere makes the option of effing off all the more simpler. Its great. Some people here should try it some time.
