Well good folks of #FBPE and fellow Europhiles, it's not looking good in old Blighty, is it? At the time of this tweet things are falling apart. The economy is heading south already and the UK hasn't even left the building. Is it time for a #BrExodus? Or a #Brescape?

Read on...

Reports of a "doomsday scenario" do not sound appealing. The government are behaving in both a delusional and a xenophobic manner, and huge numbers of British people are about to have their European rights striped from them. This Brexit thing clearly has no upside.

But it's worse. May is not only trying to leave the EU, she's trying to leave the ECJ and ECHR. What this mad woman has planned that would contravene the ECHR one can only guess. But it can't be good.

I won't be there to see it, I've already gone. Perhaps you should also?

From my numerous conversations here I can tell that many of you are also thinking about jumping ship now before the boat leaves the harbour completely. Some are EU27 citizens looking to get out, others are Brits in despair about the future.

If you're considering going but wavering - why?

What do you foresee happening that could improve this situation? A Corbyn Brexit? A Mogg Brexit?

Worried you'll go and hate it? Go back after a year or two. You'll have tales to tell and an impressive new entry on your CV.

Worried about turning yourself into a bargaining chip?

That crossed my mind when I made the jump as well. But, having soaked up some of the culture, that concern has receded. If you're productive most enlightened countries won't want you to leave.

Worried about the language barrier? This is an opportunity to learn a language and not be another monolingual Brit. It's easier than you think if you practice.

At the very least, you can explore the options and see what you think. Here is some stuff to get you started.

First off you can search for jobs and upload your CV to this site which covers all of the EU, and has plenty of useful information.

ec.europa.eu/eures/main.jsp

This is a fantastic website for anyone looking to move to a location in Western Europe.

If you're qualified in any STEM subjects, Germany will roll out the red carpet for you. Tech is booming in Berlin, and engineering is huge in Hamburg. There are also major construction projects taking place all over the country.

If you fancy the snow and don't mind polar bears there Finland has, by some metrics, the highest standards of living in the entire world.

Denmark have already said they want to attract people ready to leave the UK. They know the value immigrants bring. Should be a safe bet if you make it over.

If those countries seem on the chilly side for you there is always Spain. It's not just a big beach, but if you're young and like working in tourism it might be a quick and easy jump.

I couldn't find anything on the Netherlands, but this site on Amsterdam might be useful for people who want to head there.

I've not really found anything from France, so if anyone knows of a site I'd be grateful if you tweet it here.

This might be useful for finding a job there though.

They're really selling me Sweden with the blurb on this page.

If you work in chemicals, pharma, or medicine then Ireland might suit you. They're probably going to be Europe's biotech leaders soon if they aren't already.

Couldn't really find much for Belgium. This site has some useful links from it though.

If you have German language skills but don't fancy Germany (why?!), you might prefer Austria. They're apparently desperate for people who can make attractive websites if this is anything to go by.

FOM rules don't just cover the EU, but the EEA, which means Iceland is also an option.

As is Norway. The standards of living in both countries are legendarily high if you don't mind it being a little chilly sometimes.

If you have any questions or need help please feel free to DM me or someone who is on the #BrExodusHelp list (under construction) and we'll try our best. If you want to help others get out then add #BrExodusHelp to your profile or DM me and I'll add you to the list.

The door to freedom of movement might slim shut next year, and Britain might fall apart soon after. It might not, but if it does you'll forever wonder. If it doesn't then you've enriched your worldly experience anyway.

You have nowt to lose.
