I'm in the other bit of the Isles but what advice would you give to escaping it and moving to China?

Other bit of the UK? Ireland isn't in the UK. If you have a degree in anything and no criminal convictions you can get a work visa here to teach English. You can apply from home and they will pay for an apartment and a very good salary. I'm not sure about flights as I made my own way here. It's a good life and as a foreigner here you're treated very well in general, in some of the smaller cities you'd be a local celebrity just for being foreign. I live in a city of 11m people though so no such luck for me.

Fair point. Can I say "The Isles" instead?
JayCroghan OP t1_isz40hq wrote
The islands of Great Britain and Ireland I would say.

The important part is that the bit I'm on sucks.

Then get a TEFL course and go teach English anywhere else then. There are lots of countries who are willing to pay native speakers to teach them.

Lots of English speakers have been out of jobs and the CCP is pushing anti-english rhetoric lately though?
JayCroghan OP t1_it1j4zv wrote
What and where is the anti-English rhetoric? Where and why are English speakers out of jobs?

Check out SerpentZA or LaoWhy86 on YouTube. They lived in China for years and had to escape. I would definitely not go there right now.

Lol imagine getting your information from YouTubers who make a living off appealing to a certain demographic.
