Why did “lifestyle migration” capture so many social scientists’ imagination – and how has it travelled in the 25 years since The British on the Costa del Sol?

@aberuni.bsky.social for the #imigmob25 conference!
The sun's shining and we're excited to welcome you all. 🌞🌞
… and those employed and self-employed, as well as those living in the A8, EFTA, EEA Scandinavia …
But it is also open to any Brits who were living in the EU, EEA and EFTA by 31 December 2020
It is open to people of all ages! Was just trying to boost responses in other age groups. Would be great to be able to record your experience as part of the research.
27.06.2025 17:11 — 👍 1 🔁 0 💬 1 📌 0Are you British and living in the EU, EEA, EFTA since before 31 December 2020?
I am still looking for more responses from those:
- Aged between 18 and 35
- Black, Asian and mixed-ethnicity Britons
If you know anyone who fits the bill, please share: lancasteruni.eu.qualtrics.com/jfe/form/SV_...
This sounds really stressful (which is likely an understatement)

Please take part in this survey
5 years since the end of the Brexit transition period means many Brits in the EU who were beneficiaries of the Withdrawal Agreement, will be transitioning from temporary to permanent residence

Book Talk: Global Hong Kong: Post-2019 Hong Kong migration and the new Hong Kong diaspora Thursday, 12 June 2025 14:00-15:00
Against Chinese Transnational repression — Stand with Hongkongers — Manchester, June 12 6 years since Hongkongers rose up for freedom. The CCP’s repression hasn’t stopped — and now it’s reaching into the UK, Virus warfare, Spy Hub, Silencing dissidents, Kidnappings — even on UK soil. The CCP’s attacks on the free world are real, and they’re happening here. We should STOP the UK becoming the next sacrifice under Chinese Transnational repression. Join Us to resist authoritarian influence on British soil. RALLY: 6:00pm, St Peter’s Square, Manchester, UK MARCH: 6:30pm to the Manchester Chinese Consulate
「毋忘當日信念 抵抗中共擴張」 曼徹斯特 612抗爭六周年中領館遊行 日期:6月12日 (四) 集合及集會:6:00pm 地點:由St.peter’s square (曼徹斯特中央圖書館) 遊行開始時間:6:30起步前往曼城中領館 「民族要自強,親自爭取應有尊嚴。」 沒有暴徒,只有暴政。 2019年6月12日,香港人走上街頭,阻止「逃犯條例」通過。警方卻將示威定性為暴動,發射數百枚催淚彈和橡膠子彈,暴力鎮壓抗爭者。 如今,我們為了自由被迫離開故土,然而中共的暴政仍然猖獗。更甚者,妄圖把其影響力擴散至英國。例如2022年曼徹斯特中領館人員肆意毆打示威者,視英國法律為無物。最近,還打算在倫敦興建超級領事館,企圖監控所有在英的異見人士。 那天,你我在街頭發誓要捍衞自由,在催淚煙下仍不撤不散。六年後,面對暴政跨境鎮壓,我們抗爭者也定要再次站出來,抵抗中共的狼子野心。這是要捍衞屬於我們的自由和尊嚴,也是要堅持當天的信念,貫徹到底! 今年612 ,我們在街頭再會! 香港民族誓要自強,親手爭取應有嘅尊嚴
