No. I haven't had a chance to talk with him yet as I've been away. It seems very strange as I thought they really settled .

Interesting, so what is it that's led to them feeling that way?

Is that because of direct experience, or because of what they've heard/seen on media/social media?

Sad anyway.

That's unfortunate. My girlfriend feels much the same way. She's experienced a bit of abuse since brexit. None beforehand funnily enough.

Colchester is turning a bit horrible lately. Certainly not a place that I think generally feels safe

Why is a weak pound going to bother him any more than anyone else? He's lived and worked here five and a half years. His last child was born here.

I'm sure he's not alone feeling afraid, with crime now at an unacceptable level for a lot of people. At least he knows another country where he can live safely.
