Advice please, moving to the UK.

[Donkeydaz]

Hey guys.

I am am a self employed electrician from the island of Guernsey, small island in between England and France. I have been going for my self since October last year and charge £24 an hour. The normal going rate over here for an electrician is anything between £25-£40 an hour and working for someone the average wage an hour is about £16 an hour.

In the next month or so I am looking at moving over to the uk to an area south east of England, West Sussex.
I am just curious what is the average going rate for a self employed sparky and what is the average rate working for someone. I haven't looked into anything yet, it's been a kind of last minute decision to move.

Any advice will be greatly appreciated, I will be looking at working for someone when I get there and look into going self employed again.

I am recently qualified 2 years ago and hold all recent qualifications.

Many thanks.

The death penalty for some crimes was just a hangover mate, it would never have been given to anyone. Christ even before 1965 you only got it for murder not fire in her majesty's docks or obstructing the passage of the monarch.

Vote UKIP and say goodbye to statutory maternity pay
Vote UKIP and say goodbye to a lot of equality legislation
Vote UKIP and isolate the UK internationally
Vote UKIP to turn the clock back at least 50 years.
The UK that they paint as some wonderful idyllic place never existed.

I don't need a job mate, I made thousands during the tony blair days, I am semi retired and will happily drive a milk float about for a couple of beers a week
