Not saying it is GG13 but doctors are much better paid and have better working conditions, I've not said anything about the quality of the patient care.
Depends on where they work and the demographics.
House prices, food, clothing and particularly footwear are rising.
There is no middle ground High Street as we have in the U.K.
The Government has brought in regulations on who can buy property/land to try and slow the housing prices from rising.
Might look good on paper but the reality is somewhat different.
GrannyGravy I think anecdotal experience, though interesting, does not tell you how a whole nation lives. It is often called "the evidence of one".
My son and his family also live in Australia and I think his "evidence" would diametrically oppose that of your families. However, much of that may depend on income and opportunity, just as it would do here.
I don't actually understand what you mean when you say there is no "middle ground high street" so can't comment on that with regard to health care.
Nor can I guess what you mean by the introduction of laws regarding property. As far as I am aware, as a none national you cannot buy property without permission and you have to show that is going to be your residence. That seems a good idea to me.
Equally, I think, though I could not give you chapter and verse, that where an employer runs the pension scheme for the mandatory superannuation pension scheme , no more than a third of that can be invested in property. But again, that seems like a good safeguarding measure.
Making another country your home will never suit 100% of the people who try it.
