There are still cheap places to live all over England and Scotland - I bought a 1 bedroom flat with small garden for £90k in Peterborough (a smaller city about an hour north of London) 3 years ago, and the garden has enough space for a few raised beds with vegetables in them

Isn’t that “right wingers” still even if it’s his own corrupt pals?
beveradb@sh.itjust.worksto politics @lemmy.world•US popularity collapses worldwide in wake of Trump’s return19·20 days agoI agree and that rise saddens me, but in Europe, I still generally have confidence that the majority of countries’ populations respect general decency, human rights and lack of corruption enough to keep the hate and greed mostly at bay. In the US, it’s now long past hope - the corruption runs so deep, so broadly that it’s taken over, and that means the country is doomed to be somewhere I never wanna live.

The greed and corruption runs so deep that the supreme court are all bribed or heavily biased, so I have no confidence whatsoever in the judicial system.
I’m a cis white man, and I’m working to get myself the hell out of this utterly fucked country as soon as I can because everybody in power is blatantly corrupt and there are no functional checks and balances any more.
It takes years even if you’re legal. If you’ve committed any kind of crime, including working or being here illegally without a visa, you’ll get denied

Kinda yeah, but I was still able to buy it with only £10k down, my mortgage is only £350/month, and I’ve repainted the place to suit my taste and cut out a wall to make space for a washing machine (I put a dishwasher in the kitchen instead). Not saying it’s for everyone, but it worked for me 🤷
