Good for you, Lilja! I would do the same, and in fact you're doing Britain a favor too.

I do see that the vote for the leave seems to have been driven alot by nationalism to the point of isolationism. Perhaps I am wrong in this and those in the UK can better explain why it went the way it did. I do think the latest immigration/refugee taking in figures really drove the vote. Which in the end was still silly as my country and Germany took in a lot more than the UK did. But then that is my point as I rant on my soapbox
Yes of course, I'm sure the huge influx of refugees into Europe prompted many people to vote Leave. True as well that Sweden and Germany have been more hospitable.
I don't have statistics to hand, but my feeling is that Britain is smaller and more densely populated than many European countries, which perhaps has led people to think, "We have plenty of people (of all nationalities) living here already. Can our country sustain a huge new influx of people?"
Already there is unprecedented pressure on UK schools, healthcare, transport infrastructure and housing to provide for the present residents. People complain all the time that these services/resources are inadequate for the population, and a wave of new immigration would only make that worse.

Omg please tell me whats wrong with loving my country? Whats wrong with buying American? Hrmmm.... Whats wrong with wanting all of us to be protected? . I hear nothing wrong with that. NOTHING! I cant just go to the border in Mexico and say ok take me I am here.... I distrust my government that has sold out her people. I no longer feel that this nation stands for liberty, the right to live your life in peace and do what you want. I want to be left alone to do Roxy I want good jobs for my fellow americans and I want a clean prosperous country. Where we the people have more say as to where our taxes go.

I am willing to kill yes to protect any citizen in this country from enemies foreign or domestic if I had to yes. If I woke up tomrrow and there were tanks in the street, or foreign invaders terrestrial or extraterrestrial I stand up and fight. Because I believe in democracy I believe in this Republic. And because I would not stand by and watch the slaughter of my people even the most libtarded one of u. And its sad that there are less people like me, and more better you than me people out there.

Btw:
Nobody says anything about the first emperor of china that bitch built a wall ....so big you can see it from space.
Just sayin.

Countries are based on cultures, and some cultures are superior to others because they developed cultural institutions based on a rule of law that protects its citizens from tyranny, protects private property rights that allows for the development of capital, and allows for a free vote in a parliamentary democracy, which is why everyone wants to live in the western world.

There is a reason why the United States is the richest country in the world, with one of the highest rates of immigration, and why no one want to live in f)ckin Saudi Arabia!
