thousands have, and never looked back. Just get a foot in the country, on the soil, money will be thrown at you. If you don't qualify, the legal processes takes sometimes 7 yrs, paid for by the British of course, so free for you. If it look like you might lose, just disappear, you will have plenty of friends by then, so dont waste time, network. Don't worry after that, no ID required, they cannot catch you. My brother there, one day I am going also.
