> I’m in the UK, intending to move out for obvious reasons

I thought you meant pay by this, but then you include Berlin in your list of potential places... Is there other reasons I'm missing out on? Genuinely curious

Brexit. I could go on for ages about specifics, but experience says that nobody outside the UK really cares (it’s so 2016), and nobody inside the UK is changing their minds.
Haha! Oh right. I'm an immigrant in the UK myself. Curious as to why the natives would leave :)
Ah! Partly the total incompetence of the people who are in charge of making Brexit happen, partly because I don’t trust the UK government with human rights unless bound by international convention (a bind which looks like it will be a lot weaker after Brexit).

It’s unfortunate, really, there’s a lot of nice stuff in the UK too. And I know I’ll miss it.

They just put someone in the pen for 8 months for having a laser jammer on their car and flipping cameras the bird.

I'd be making my way toward the door, as well.

I think he's talking about the upcoming Brexit :)
