If you're new to my channel and videos, hi! I'm Evan Edinger, and I make weekly "comedy" videos every Sunday evening. As an American living in London I love noticing the funny differences between the cultures and one of my most popular video series is my British VS American one. I'm also known for making terrible puns so sorry in advance. Hope to see you around, and I'll see you next Sunday! :)

I'm sitting here in South Africa and i cannot wait to move to England. I had a university exchange there for half a year and made so much friends for life. I will move there permanently. It will be hard, but i will accomplish it.

"News article the government put out themselves", it's called a press release Evan...

Me born in the uk: very interesting and very useful

From what I understand, after 2020 university international students will now actually have 2 years to find sponsored employment, not just 3 months.

It’s difficult to hear that basically your dream will never happen
I’m so sad I can’t even cry ...

This topic has me bothered since Brexit was first being talked about. I always planned to finish university in Germany and move to the UK right after which would be this summer.
Thanks for this video!

Evan: It's not so bad!! You only need a PhD!
Also Evan: 70% of people who came to the UK before 2004 would not be eligible.
lol.

I am a UK citizen, but if I wasn't I wouldn't qualify to live here despite me having a specialised 'career' job in a sector that is a healthy contributor to the UK economy. 25k is a high wage in a lot of key industries and a PHD is pretty exclusionary to most. The loss of freedom of movement with the EU makes my heart hurt.

The EU settlement scheme wasn't free initially, the fee was scrapped after pressure.

These videos are the reason I quickly subscribed. You are incredibly likeable, thoroughly entertaining, and incredibly informative in a fun way. As a UK citizen, you're able to teach me about my country, America, and the fun comparisons between the two. One of the greats, and one of my favourites! Such an underappreciated and underrated Youtuber, one of only a select few keeping me watching the platform!

Well done Evan. This video is very good and really does highlight some of the pros and cons of the new system. Every single article I read online from various news outlets had their own particular slant on this, depending on the political leaning of the publication.

as someone who wants to eventually move and go to school in the UK, this is very helpful. thank you evan!! ♥️♥️♥️

I think, from what I’ve read, it seems like a pretty good system, and although everything has its flaws (as a UK citizen), I believe it will benefit us quite a bit.

[bradenharris]

Thanks for clearing up any confusion about moving to the UK after Brexit. As a fellow South Jersey native, I have always wondered what it's like to move to the UK. I think London is a magnificent city, but I know now that there are good and bad things about living in London after watching your pros and cons of living in London video. Thanks again and have a great day!

[jessicabir]

Why am I watching this, I'm British 😂

As a student who just got accepted into a bfa program in the UK this was super helpful! I’ll be moving in the fall, and I’m seriously hoping to get a tier two visa once I graduate. The only thing that scares me is that the profession I want to go into is freelance based. Do you think you’d be able to go into more detail about how you work as a freelance artist in the UK?

Thanks so much!

The salary threshold does not take into account that salaries in, for example, NI are way lower than England.

Interestingly from what I’ve read they aren’t changing the Visa I’m on. I am an Australian living in the UK on an Ancestral Visa. It has 3 requirements. Be 18, be a commonwealth citizen, and have at least 1 grandparent be born in the UK it gives you unrestricted working and studying capabilities in the UK for 5 years.

I don’t know how I feel about these changes I think no matter what the UK will now struggle to get skilled European workers because they have so many easier options.
