I'm British, and I can tell you that most of us do not like you Americans very much. We don't share anything in common with you and we don't like your people or your president.
We feel much more affinity towards Canadians, Australians & Kiwis than we do with you people.
I think it would be best if Americans visited the UK. You'd find out fast that we don't like you Yanks.

LOL! I was there last year, and the only place where people acted stuck up was London. I think the race thing had something to do with it. Or it could be people in any big city are unfriendly (Miami, or N.Y.) Manchester, Blackpool, Kent, Delph, were all very friendly.

well that's too bad - or is it?because one thing is for certain , you arrogant hypocrite , Americans have a wonderful ability to be forthcoming and offer friend ship , something foreign to the English , now please make sure that I said English because Ireland and Scotland do not like being thrown in the same pot with the English! we all know that!
you are obviously one of two kinds! a English Muslim or some dumb f*o*c*k*e*d* bloke who is so uneducated and perverted and a raciest! I would trust an American over the English any time! who am I kidding , the way you talk ,your own kind probably doesn't like ya!!!!!!!!
Just look what you've done to the world all these years! you still owe a lot of people apologies , money , ancient artifacts that you have stolen in ww2 , should I go on? you and your chums are an embarrassment to the world!
British are not just the English - we like Irish and Scott's more because they have more heart then you do!

Well HELLO NEW GIRL ON THE BLOCK.
Member since, what's that? Today, Jan. 31, 2007
I doubt you will last long with that kind of posting.
Your caustic attitude is not one to promote tourism to UK.
I am certain your conceited, hatefilled rhetoric is only indicative of a small minority of British citizens.
However, I do wish your people would learn to speak English. It is awfully hard for me to follow their speech in the movies. They chop off so many of the letters of words. I swear if they modified the dictionary to reflect the phonics of British English the book would have considerably fewer pages. I have NEVER heard a Brit pronounce an "R" at the end of a word. Roger comes out sounding like Roguh. And cheers sounds like cheeuz.
I would think that most Brits have some compassion for us obnoxious Yanks. At least you should. If not for US intervention back in 1941-1945 you blokes would be speaking Deutsche.
Show some gratitude.
Or are you some upstart Kazakstani/Afghanistani/Iranian terrorist just trying to stir the pot? I suspect so. Divide and conquer?....

It seems ignorant to decide you don't like everyone in a country. For my part, I vociferously don't agree with our president. I also haven't been monumentally impressed with the British in present-day society. We do have one thing in common; Tony Blair frequently looks more like our vice-president than he does your prime minister.
We don't always go on about how much we "love" the British. (Generalities are a slippery thing, aren't they? Here's an example to disprove your statement.)
I think the amount of money spent propping up the museum you call the monarchy is ridiculous. Truly. Our government may have problems, but I must say yours does too. You may have done away with slavery more quickly than we did, but you did carry on with the oppression, didn't you?
Except...you didn't. You, personally, probably didn't manage SIngapore for example. You aren't your government. You might not even go on about how much you hate Americans. My answer to your question is this:
Let's drop the question and try to relate to each other as more than the sum of our geography.

I've visited the UK often and have somehow missed the seething resentment lurking beneath the seemingly polite surface, the barely suppressed rage hovering on the brink of violence. Of course I was with friends.

Hey Emma in the UK,
Sorry to burst your bubble but I'm not all over you British. I went there and I assure you I will never go back. Your food is disgusting!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
Sincerely,
Tamera in the U.S.
PS. Sorry for kicking your butts back in the war, I see you didn't mention that in your question.

But we so love Tony Blair. Please send me a copy of your visit Britian poster, with your lovely Limey face. So I can tape it to a dart board and throw darts at it. A Queenly wave from me the Queen.

There are numerous documented benefits and advantages of teaching children to read early on, and teaching them to reading using phonics and phonemic awareness instructions. It is clear that early language and reading ability development passes great benefits to the child as they progress through school at all grades, and that early language and reading problems can lead to learning problems later on in school.
For a simple, step-by-step program that can help your child learn to read visit this web site: http://readingprogram.toptips.org
Hope it helps.
