British people who are unhappy with life in the UK could find Spain a good alternative, it has been suggested.

The Spanish Property Owners Guild (Spog) said some people in Britain believe that the country has gone "to the dogs" in recent years.

As a result, many have chosen to pack their bags and set up home in other countries.

Paul Bradley, spokesperson for Spog, said Spain could be the perfect place for people who share this point of view, as it offers a number of lifestyle benefits.

He stated that the low crime rates and relative safety could make it particularly attractive to older people, as it may remind them of Britain in the past.

Mr Bradley commented: "Spain is the quintessential example of how life used to be in the UK, but with nice weather."

This comes after HiFX cited the strong pound, rising house prices and good job opportunities abroad as three of the main reasons for Britons to emigrate.
