An advertising campaign designed to illustrate the drawbacks of living in the U.K. is being planned to deter an expected surge of immigrants, according to reports

Seth Dixon, Ph.D.‘s insight:

Immigration is a sensitive topic so I’ll tread lightly.  There appears to be some support for a campaign that would target would-be migrants specifically from Romania and Bulgaria that life in the U.K. isn’t as as grand as it may seem (ironic coming of the heels of the Olympics).  This obviously isn’t something that is universally supported by the British, but it does highlight the fact that more and more European countries are seeking ways to deter migrants from crossing their borders as economic struggles continue.
