Wherever you go, people seem to believe that their compatriots are fleeing in record numbers. Every second British person is moving to Dubai. Jacinda Ardern, a former prime minister of New Zealand, has decamped to Australia. And think of all the Americans who have escaped from Donald Trump’s America. Ellen DeGeneres bought a massive house near Oxford. Ryan Gosling, fresh from saving the planet in “Project Hail Mary”, has set up shop in Hampstead.
The strange thing is that there is almost no data on what is actually happening. So we compiled it. And the emigration surge is real, with numbers soaring since the end of the covid pandemic. But,
as we explain,
this is likely to be a good thing, not a bad one. |
