UK has some of the same problems as US does, also stoked by Putin & Musk.

What happens to the US, good or bad, affects the rest of the world, so you really can't hide. Consider if Trump gets back in power, he'll probably withdraw from NATO. Russia will likely conquer Ukraine, then go roughshod against the Baltics, Poland & the rest of Europe. China will be encouraged to invade Taiwan & perhaps other nations of eastern, southern & central Asia. Venezuela will try to take over the Guianas, etc. Climate chaos will get out of control, & we'll have ecosystem collapse & mass extinction.

I hope (& expect) you vote for Kamala & other Democrats before leaving, if you do go.

I know. But you can't go bankrupt from medical debt and you don't have to worry so much about being shot. Plus my husband's family is there. And yes, we're voting blue.

All great reasons to live in UK instead of US.

Don’t forget to add the very realistic likelihood of a World War III, with dunderhead Donnie, it wouldn’t be long before he stumbles into that.

Yes, very likely. Although we may be heading that way, anyway, with his fellow psychopaths Putin & Netanyahu on the loose.
