Would you accept $1 000 000 to leave the country and never set foot in it again?

If you mean leaving my own country..then no I would not accept the money.

I have no specific feelings of connection to any one country

No - proud of my country and wouldn't take money to leave it.

I was born of this soil,and they will bury me in it.No amount of money can make me change my mind.

Let me get this straight. I get $1,000,000 so I could go and live in (say) Florence, surrounded by beautiful architecture and works of art, eat divine food, drink fantastic wine, meet beautiful and well-dressed people...AND never have to come back to this s***hole?

Are you kidding?

I might well be tempted...and my family could come and visit me wherever I was.

I could go through a lousy million in nothing flat. Sweeten the pot and include my family and I'd consider it. But this would still be home.

The world is my home anyway.

I do not feel my country is my country anymore. It would appear that immigrants have more rights than I do. I have been thinking about emigrating anyway. Perhaps I'd move to Eire.

Absolutly Not!

I voted NO, but if I had no family here I might be tempted...there are so many beautiful places in the world.

OKMan

Don't force me to make a citizen's arrest

I will add to my answer...I would be willing to take the money to leave..if it were not for the never return clause. I mean, never to see my home, and to leave the memories I have hear. Plus, the thought of not seeing friends or family again...no amount of money is worth whay you would have to leave behind.

Give me the money and im gone

I very nearly emigrated when I was 25

Although I love England, I've had many homes here and I see no reason why I should not have many homes elsewhere and learn to love other countries as well.

It would be good to see the list of voters in these polls - especially this one.

The national split would be facinating.

There are far too many places abroad that I've not seen for me to say no. It would be a perfect excuse to up roots and travel. I can imagine far worse fates, I'd sign up for this one.

I'm single, I have no kids, a million bucks.................ok where do I sign?

I think we should all pool our million dollars and establish the ForumGarden Hippie Commune, all we need do is decide where. Goa? Morocco? Lesbos?

I don't live in my country anyway...

And not forgetting the FG hippie commune credit card as fashioned by Clancy.

Absolutely not, I have far to many people I love here and it would be difficult for them to visit me. Also, I value my freedom far to much - I wan't to go where I wan't, when I wan't
