If he wanted to stay in Europe, he could try Luxembourg.

I'd go to work in Luxembourg at the drop of a hat. Much better than the UK, IMO. I played golf many times at the country club next to the Luxembourg airport. Nice course, and I was always treated magnificently. It was about an hour drive from where I was stationed in Germany in the late 70s.

UK is a no go....one of our UK customers here in N.E. IL said he would not move back....i asked him why and he told me outright that Muslims there have more rights than the white English citizen.

Sound familiar?

Luxembourg is a great little country, It’s the only surviving Grand Duchy in the world. With all their financial industry centers, it’s steel industry, etc. it’s quite prosperous. Most of the citizens speak English as well as French, German and the native dialect, Luxemburgesh, a form of ancient German.

The Luxembourgers, at least the older ones, still love Americans, as our troops liberated them twice in WWII from the Nazis. Travelling east from Bastogne in Belgium, it is possible to travel the road of Patton’s Army across the Ardennes mountains in No. Luxembourg. The small towns have lots of memorials & Museums to the U.S. Soldier and to Gen. George Patton who is not only a hero to them, but who is buried at the US National Cemetery in Hamm, Luxembourg.

There is a story in Luxembourg that says that to start a brawl in Luxembourg you just need to go into a bar and say bad things about Gen. Patton. They revere his memory and will not tolerate insults to his reputation.
