Why Immigrate from the UK to Australia?
The need for skilled workers...
A thriving economy and the need for skilled workers are just two of the needs that underly Australia's migration policy. Considered one of the world's leading immigration systems for servings its country's needs, the Australia government specifically targets workers from the UK and other highly-regarded countries, such as Germany, france and other parts of Europe, with its skilled visa programmes.
From the UK to Australia...
The migration process has become less of an unknown factor, with magazines and television programmes documenting how ordinary people can make the move from UK to Australia. In addition to the greater level of understanding regarding the process itself, there are a number of other 'push factors' acting on people in the UK, making them seek a new life abroad. In turn, Australia has powerful 'pull factors' which make it the top destination for migrants from the UK.
PUSH factors...
* High cost of living in the UK, from the price of petrol to the cost of
property.
* Lack of access to good schools and family facilities.
* Crowded cities and dissatisfaction with quality of life.
* Difficult to access high-paying jobs and earn a salary that matches the rapid
rate of inflation.
* Cold climate and pollution.
* Family and friends already moved abroad.
PULL factors...
* Long tradition of welcoming emigrants from the UK.
* Friendly, familiar, English speaking culture.
* Low cost of living, especially the cost of property.
* Great job opportunities, especially for tradespersons and workers with jobs on the MODL and SOL.
* World-class education and a great place to raise a family.
* Plenty of Australian visa options for emigrants from the UK.

Australian Immigration Minister Moves Away From Visa Decision Making
Senator Chris Evans, the Minister for Immigration and Citizenship, said he wants less power to overturn Australian immigration decisions and less ministerial involvement to create a more transparent visa application process. For the first quarter of this year the minister was found to have finalised the cases of 472 people trying to get an Australian visa.
Senator Evans told a senate estimate hearing: "I have granted a total of 187 visas," reports the Sydney Morning Herald. However, the government member said he no longer wants the decision making power of granting Australian visas to be "in the hands of the minister" apart from in "exceptional circumstances".
He said the system did not create good public policy, despite him essentially signing off decisions made by the former minister Kevin Andrews. Recent statistics showed that most people entering into Australian immigration in the past ten years have achieved employment. The government commented yesterday that Australian visa holders are essential to the economy and add real value to it.
