Bit like here now, where if you live/work in the city, you are ( generally ) a lot better off than the rest.
The rich are getting richer by offshoring the jobs of the poor, and if they arent careful, the mass of unemployed poor wil ark up. Just look at the number of people here deserting the major parties.

This. Pommie expats I've spoken to are generally somewhat glum about what has happened to their former home in recent years. Of course those who have made money off this are quite content with the situation.

Given that there will be economic repercussions, there has to be some pretty p****ed off people to make such a drastic decision.
