Both UK and USA are being over run by third world people. Worse they think they are doing us a favor. I still can't figure that stupid statement out yet. \nMost of the ones we get are illegal they are out numbering the legals. We also have towns that are all one race you'd think you just crossed the southern border. We do have great weather but they aren't coming for that its welfare here too.

* You will be living far from your family & friends\n* The way of life & customs will be different\n* U.K is extremely expensive\n* You will stand out because you are not English, this can \n  be a good thing but can also single you out for trouble.\n* It would be expensive to go home every holiday\n\nIt can be the most wonderful thing you will ever do but living in another country is never an easy option. The homesickness & missing your family & friends can really hurt.\n\nAlso even if you do study in another country it does not mean that country will want you to live there after, you may get a student visa but it does not mean you will definately get an immigration visa to live in the U.K.

I agree with you. I think many of them come here for the exact reasons you stated. I know there are war torn countries and whatever but Britain is only a small island and there are plenty of safe countries in between us and their own country. They come here because they are practically guaranteed a good life and a job, if they feel like working, though they don't have to. I get about £300 a month in tax credits to help me stay at home with my own kids. There are people who have a problem with that when these illegals are coming in and being given brand new houses, some built for them, then they were getting those food voucher thingys but that's not good enough is it, they want the cash so they can go and buy themselves a corner shop and rip us off some more. I am all for the BNP on this one. It's not racist. It's fair. It doesn't happen in other countries. If I went to another country, they wouldn't just hand out free stuff just because I was foreign so why do people think it's racist if you don't want to do that?

Only and Only mixing more and more with internation people will make u understand and ease the tension the world is having for a quite long time now.I am a bangladeshi and been to australia and stayed there for 7 years-and that really made me understand why the Australian authority always rejects south east asia's peoples application to allow them to stay in their country---its not xenophobia(fear of aliens) as the south east media would like to potray about the mentality of australian people.I am not gonna elaborate on that,but I know now that most australian people are one the most honest,decent,fun loving,kind hearted nation on earth.I met the british,the greeks and a lot of other people to understand that they started to hate the muslims or arabs or asians only after the media started this dirty game of potraying foreigners(from arab and asia)as evils.If u are an american,u r now potrayed as evil as well in the middle eastern too.But,to be very honest-if u could go pass the media mayhem and say hello to an young bangladeshi,you are definitely going to end up being freinds.....every human being has the same emotions....but he or she is right now a bit of hesitant because of the media.Remember one thing,If u are looking at an animal and feel scared,it is also feeling the same about you.And this rule is applicabale to human beings too.....bye for now.Have a truly nice life full with friends everywhere in the globe unlike the politicians.

Hi, I can get the way you now feel, because its such a long time you have been in the same place (like may be home or hospital), so you feel that the whole world has left you behind and is moving far ahead. So, start to read newspapers, magazines and try to debate on the topics with people you meet, and try to get their views and ideas, which will familiarise you with them and get a feel that you are one among them. Good luck.

Good question, tough to answer. I left my country 50 years ago. I was very homesick till I had my own family , kids and all. Now that I am in the winter of my years I dream about my country and my friends still there and I long for it often. I feel my heart is here and my soul I left there and there will always be a hankering for both, wherever I am I miss one of the places. I know that does not help you much but you have to start forming your own roots where you are now or go back.

My brother in law is British and loves it here.  He doesn't want to go back except visit his family once a year.  He hasn't really faced too many problems.  Just some jobs he couldn't get until he became a citizen.

No. Immigrant's life is really sad. Wherever you go, you'll never feel at home. Money is money, but home is the best!\nRomania is becoming an EU member as of Jan1 2007.\nYou'll have better opportunities if you stay there than to go somewhere , start from nothing, cry every night and be despised by the local population. Trust me; been there, done that.\nIt's not the time for emigration anymore...

Ive got the same problem with my -- 'out-laws' But luckily for me they are going abroad this year so we are safe. Next year might be different though cos we've had some turbulent times and I dont think I will ever feel the same about them again.\n\nI would try and keep it nice for the children we have but if it weren't for them I wouldn't be bothering.

Almost every part, because my mom is Irish but she looks Scandinavian, my dad part English, part Italian, part American. I never felt I belonged in Ireland, I don't feel I belong in the UK or Italy. However sometimes I feel an affinity with Americans who live in the New York area, possibly because allot of immigrants moved there, and possibly because America is full of mixed Europeans.
