The following quote appeared in a leading British newspaper today

"As Americans prepare to celebrate the 230th anniversary of their independence tomorrow, the poll found that only 12 per cent of Britons trust them to act wisely on the global stage. This is half the number who had faith in the Vietnam-scarred White House of 1975.

Most Britons see America as a cruel, vulgar, arrogant society, riven by class and racism, crime-ridden, obsessed with money and led by an incompetent hypocrite."

you do not pick to ask, actual lol. Like maximum Canadians and individuals, they do view the Brits to be posh, quaint, uninteresting, no humor or exciting, old and uninteresting. yet i'm particular it really is a stereotype of route; it really is how British all and diverse is portrayed contained in the media. i'm Canadian-American and that i as a rule grew up contained in the US and in conserving with my knowledge and journey, us individuals don't like the royals yet it really is diverse in Canada. average, Britain seem non violent and extremely uninteresting (similar like Canada). i understand that sounds very ignorant for me to assert even if it truly is how I continually considered Britain inspite of how i understand that my perspectives are thoroughly incorrect.
