I live in a suburb of Manchester, but you wouldn't be able to tell by looking around because each urban settlement in this country looks like a crappy copypaste of Greater London.
Every city centre is a gentrified multicultural shithole dominated by American-owned retail chains and hipster 'gastropubs' - all built under the signature generic glass towers of modern construction that are slowly but surely enveloping the traditional architecture. The residential districts are packed with rows of cheap council housing for the poor, and cheap semi-detached housing for the middle class.
Rich toffs are the only ones allowed to escape the packed roads, gangs of chavs, and grim highstreets. They, and they only, have lovely estates and farms throughout the countryside, away from the urban rot. The average bloke can't enjoy the countryside for himself because it's almost all privately owned by said toffs. The only 'wilderness' is miniscule new-growth forests here and there and the swathes of baren moorland; both of which are packed with tourists and motorways, and are surrounded by the toffs' farmland.
And I haven't even scrutinized the state of our culture. We're becoming increasingly influenced by American entertainment and traditions as a result of economic globalisation, meaning that materialism is now omnipresent. Culture is imported from across the Atlantic and then consumed en masse by the British lumpenproletariat; the national zeitgeist turns more and more American with every fucking Marvel movie they release.
But at least we have the NHS, oh wait the Tories are dismantling it and selling it for scrap. But at least we have the Labour Party to oppose this, oh wait they care more about the welfare of trannies and foreigners than the working class Briton. But at least we have football, oh wait England play like shit and Harry Kane's a mong.

This. It's what Eastern Euros do, we need to swallow our pride and start doing the same.
Brody Bennett
that's quite concerning we as migrants need to redistribute our settlement to ensure you receive all of the cultural benefits

lol living in england
This is my town in scotland - half an hour by train to both edinburgh and glasgow, half an hour by car to the mountains, pretty comfy
I can walk to work, I have no student loans (all paid for by government), bought a house 5 mins walk from the train station for 100k, all the neighbours are decent folk and help me out as much as i help them out (decent example, was making a cake for the wifeys bday and realised I had no baking powder, the old lady next door gave me a spoonful to use, and I do shopping for her in the ol' lockdown)
England is a shithole, but scotland is pretty decent
