Rama compares Albania with Britain/ There are higher salaries, but you need two
Prime Minister Edi Rama

Prime Minister Edi Rama, in this Saturday's "podcast" with British citizen Karl Roberts, compared life in Albania and Great Britain.

Rama said that in Britain you have to work two jobs to make ends meet and you can't find time for your family

He stated that despite the fact that in Britain or in other European countries the salaries are better, there is higher rent, more taxes and bills to pay.

"I don't know much about Britain, but I have the feeling that it is not easy to find that sense of community that once existed, it has become much more distant.

I was in London to meet with Albanians and the story I heard is common, very common, and I'm talking about people who are stable, work hard, who started from trying to do everything and already have families, children. It was the same thing: You have to do two jobs, otherwise you can't make it.

Of course in some aspects it is good for children, but it is not so good for children. Free time to spend with family is zero.

I've had people here who came from immigration and they say the same thing. When people see the salaries from here and make the comparison, of course it's a big difference.

But what's behind that salary, when it comes to rent, taxes, bills to pay, it's unaffordable in Britain, or anywhere else in Europe.

So it has to be put on the scale, but still I understand people who want to challenge themselves, trying where they think the possibilities are greatest. This is normal", emphasized the head of the government./ CNA
