Why some british accents are very easy to understand for foreingers like me, and others only the british can get it?
What's the diference? What's best? The one we can understand or the other?

We all speak English in the U.K, but everyone has different dialects depending on whereabouts they're from. People from Ireland/Scotland have stronger accents, and even within England accents and tones vary between different towns and cities, so everyone sounds a bit different! People in the Home Counties (Kent, Berkshire, Hertfordshire, etc) generally have less of an accent than anyone else so you'd probably understand them more. I'm from London though and I speak very well, you'd understand me ;-)
