So by the same logic, criticism agains the government shouldn't be taken seriously unless they come from a former prime minister?

They may leave them open, but for an European engineer it just became a lot less attractive.

There is nothing keeping them from colluding to keep wages down then. Apart from the government, that is...

Yes, I've never been but I've heard that it's a beautiful city.

How is the job situation there? I don't know many software companies in Vienna.

I would rather not go into that, but I've heard this several times and I think it misrepresents the situation:

Well, if the UK leaves the EU my rights would be affected. Also I expect a few years of bad economy after the decision where it will be easy to blame other European countries for every problem. So the future doesn't look very promising if we stay.

I was considering Berlin, Amsterdam and Madrid (we are originally from there, so it's the obvious place to come back to, even if the situation there is less than ideal).

I could get UK citizenship if I ask for it, and I would have done that if it was the other way around (my country leaving the EU, instead of the UK).

The way I see it, the main argument to leave the EU is to reduce immigration, it would be pointless if we stay in anyway :)
