Trust me, if you're an EU citizen, you don't want to work in the UK. Horribly dysfunctional, overtaxed country run by evil kleptocratic psychopaths. Take a look at the Nordics instead.

Do you mean UK or England? I'd like to hope Scotland remains a welcoming environment. And it has lots of opportunities for tech folks, certainly in the "central belt" Glasgow and Edinburgh. Check out the jobserve.co.uk website and search for stuff in either city if you're curious about skills in demand and salaries available. Scotland remains a very affordable place to live btw.

But yes we sadly do remain (for now) somewhat tied to whatever ill-advised schemes Westminster decides to inflict.

I'm French and I moved to the UK because of my country actually being overtaxed. raised my salary by 40%. But I agree on the horribly dysfunctional though

Nordics are not overtaxed?
