good point of view: when you are unable to do anything to change, and the future does not sound good in your country you just leave it! I did the same: some call it "voting with your own feet" :)

I suggest you would totally avoid Italy due to very high taxation, but most of all a huge mandatory pension rate if you are a sole trader that is well known to give you nothing back: the rate was over 27% had to become almost 32% but fortunately they locked and now lowered to about 26%).

U.K. is much much better (taxation is human, and the best of it is that you know very clearly what you do have to pay, it is all written very clearly on the gov website): it is harder to get there after brexit, but I still strongly suggest it.

I would give a try to Romania, Malta, Portugal.
