both popular countries of course the weather in spain a huge appeal but also germany has noted that 2000 percent increase in british nationals already based in germany now deciding that they want to become german citizens add to that of course people seeking jule citizenship in places like the republic of ireland you're allowed to seek an irish passport if one of your grandparents was born there but perhaps the most alarming aspects of this research is that this level of emigration 30 percent tends to only be seen in countries with serious political and economic problems. but he made it so what kind of people making this. one was like countries like spain you tend to imagine retirees the older generations looking to enjoy the sunshine in their later years but that isn't entirely the case there are significant numbers of younger people many of them highly educated who despite being offered lower salaries or salary freezes are deciding to make the leap and to relocate to the european union that's not forget that only a few weeks ago the british government announced a new points based
