What is the best and worst of British? An open-ended question, certainly, and there's no right or wrong answer, but it's all food for thought.

The worst thing about us Brits is our bloody minded violent unfriendliness. We are the most violent nation in the developed world,as well as most drunken. Our soccer fans are a disgrace to humanity, as is our press.
On the positive side, we value privacy, courtesy and toleration, are reasonably welcoming of foreigners (See what is happening in France by comparison) and have what is possibly the best live music in Europe. Rule Britannia.

I hate the government for being soft on people who don't want to work, criminals who get away with it, anti- social kids who think they can do what they like, high council taxes..... need i go on.
However, there are the simple pleasures in life to uphold.
The sea air, the beautiful countryside and of course fish and chips!!!!

I love the mix of people in Britain mixed in faith and race, I love our character. I don't like the widespread CCTV use and the electron intrusion into innocent peoples lives.
