Yes, I left

I moved to OZ about 8 years ago and wouldn't move back even though I do miss certain things about Britain.
Frying pan... fire... well having lived through the Thatcher years I have now survived the Howard epoch and that too will end in a few months.
All things must pass.
All over the world services from education and health to public transport have been rolled back and sold off for the past 30 years.
In my opinion, many of these will never exist again as the cost would now be beyond the reaches of any government not prepared to just take them back so it's all over for the liberal centre-left democracies.
I have had a mix of luck and judgement to make enough money to be able to afford stuff so it doesn't matter so much to me that Australia is going down the same path.
Sad but people often vote for lower taxes.
As for British films, I will have to take a while to think of those but yes, there have been a number.
The Wind That Shakes The Barley immediately stands out.
Mrs. Henderson Presents (although part of that is the scene on the roof looking over the East End which is where my family was during the war).
I'll get back to you...
