Most chaps rent a condo, that's most of their pension gone every month.

If most of their income goes on renting a condo here, they are going to have huge difficulties renting a flat in the UK!!

He might change his mind when he has to pay 1200 GBP to rent a tiny flat in the UK, or pay 2000 GBP for Council tax or even 170 GBP for the priviledge of watching the BBC.

What about Power bills? Not long gone up but going up again in January.

Rates are already the same again as I said when this topic was started... Will only improve more over time. If you can't live of the bottom range of rates you should not live here to begin with.

The OP does not say how old the guy is, but you would have to drag me back kicking and screaming to the UK under this new government

 

Does he think his money will go farther there?

Says he was under 43
