In Denmark we are very lucky. Denmark has one of the best welfare models in the world, and we have free access to schools and hospitals. Everyone is experiencing different values, different cultures and different ways of living, and it depends on where you come from.
Some people are luckier than others, and in Denmark we are gifted with the freedom of travelling through the borders and to live and study abroad Denmark with no problems attached. That is because we are a part of a European union who is giving us this freedom.
In the article “I Left Increasingly right-wing Britain and Now I Don’t Know If I Will Ever Return Home” written by Sorcha McCrory and published by HuffPost Personal in December 2019, this freedom is becoming a reality.
The headline speaks for itself. Sorcha McCrory is telling her story about how she moved from Britain to Denmark, and she is focusing on all the benefits it led to and all the consequences she is now rid of. Now that she has experienced Denmark, she wants to give everyone the same chance for a better and more successful life as her.
She moved away because she is very affected by Brexit, and it has affected her life both physical and mental.

Also, these young people that she is trying to reach might have a lot going on in their lives, and they have many decisions to make in the future. Not everyone has such supportive families as her, and maybe she is finding it hard to believe that it could be any different, because for some people that is just a matter of course.
But not all parents would like to be separated from their kids like that, and many young people are not ready to move away from their family either. So even though her description of Denmark is sounding like a dream coming true, the family is for many people one of the big reasons not to move away.
It also demands a lot of courage and independence to leave, so maybe the way the message is conveyed is not convincing enough for the intended target group.
Throughout the article, Sorcha ́s opinions are clear, and her use of appeal forms is making her arguments more convincing. Denmark is clearly very different from Britain, and there are so many benefits by moving to Denmark. But these benefits come with a price, and the question is if you are willing to leave your whole life behind to achieve these things.
She is succeeding in touching the readers feelings, when she is telling her story, and the fact that young Brits has this freedom of moving to for instance Denmark is very lucky.
But she makes it seem so easy, like it is something you do every day. But it is a very big decision in their life that they must think about and maybe that is making life more complicating than not knowing what they are missing.
