You really don’t need me to tell you - “The times they are a changing” when it comes to the political certainties of the future and beyond. As populist nationalism and outright military aggression in all its forms takes hold in countries that in the past would count themselves as ‘liberal’ societies, I wonder about the future for the traditional ex-pat Brit?
Is the ‘expat’ life becoming redundant in the modern world?
What is the future for the traditional ex-pat Brit?

We moved here last year because Britain became culturally unattractive to us, too insular. We want to enjoy a different society, despite being on a much smaller island, seems less insular. Not looking for an ex pat community to join!
While many Brits would *like* to live here, it's just not British enough for most. It's expensive (for Brits) , the locals have "funny ways", and it's full of foreigners. British products are vanishing from the shelves. And as Mallorca becomes more upscale, it's becoming even more attractive to foreigners, and less attractive to Brits. Not a place for Brits, I'm afraid. Sorry.
It will be very different as due to Brexit very few British people will be moving here.
