We’d like to remind Forumites to please avoid political debate on the Forum.

This is to keep it a safe and useful space for MoneySaving discussions. Threads that are – or become – political in nature may be removed in line with the Forum’s rules. Thank you for your understanding.

PLEASE READ BEFORE POSTING: Hello Forumites! In order to help keep the Forum a useful, safe and friendly place for our users, discussions around non-MoneySaving matters are not permitted per the Forum rules. While we understand that mentioning house prices may sometimes be relevant to a user's specific MoneySaving situation, we ask that you please avoid veering into broad, general debates about the market, the economy and politics, as these can unfortunately lead to abusive or hateful behaviour. Threads that are found to have derailed into wider discussions may be removed. Users who repeatedly disregard this may have their Forum account banned. Please also avoid posting personally identifiable information, including links to your own online property listing which may reveal your address. Thank you for your understanding.

    Good luck anglaisie. We have been in France for 17 years and feel the same about France and friends here. The difference is we are both over 75. Life and costs of living in UK must have changed dramatically, but I agree the admin and taxes in France are difficult. We have no language problems, but are seriously looking to go back to UK before inheritance problems crop up.

    Hi I am a new arrival to the forum and without noticing the date 2013 on your thread I replied 2 years later! Sorry . I would like to know what decision you have made and are you happy back in UK , if indeed you have made the move.

    Will you be covered by the NHS for free as new arrivals in the UK?
