Biggus, I thought that my question covered all of it.
However, your wide ranging list of the perils to be faced by the English abroad seems quite comprehensive.
I suspect that even going a few hundred miles south might only result in not being quite so much worse off than if you stay in Scotland, rather than being able to move to the Lakes and avoid all of the pain.
I don't see anything positive for Englandshire in any of this. We might do better, or worse but it only seems to get worse for England (rUK) or whatever you want to call it.
