Thanks everyone. This is all hyperbole. I am a citizen and just seeing what I'd need to do to escape London. Nowhere else in the UK really appeals to me... Portland however...!
Find the right job and your boss will do the visa work for you.
Friend of mine works for Intel in the aforementioned Portland, they got him a green card. I did an internship for Xerox in Palo Alto a long time ago and they were similar: if they hire you, they arrange a visa for you.
