Our moat. Until they stupidly decided to did underneath the moat and allow the barbarians at the door to come through more easily, we were 'cut off' from the Europeans. We are an island race and have an insular mentality. We have grown strong on that. We welcome anyone as long as they don't try to take over or threaten our identity then our fighting spirit comes out.

1. An inability to vote in a government. They always vote one out.
2. Supreme hypocrisy: a) If they emigrate, they are appalled that the people can't understand English, but they believe that any one coming to the UK from abroad should be able to speak fluent English (and preferably understand the local accent) within three weeks of arrival.
b) Their troops can carry out torture, rape and humiliating practices against other nations, but cry foul if such actions are carried out against Brits.
c) The Brits can have nuclear weapons, but other countries (apart from the USA) cannot.
3. They are unable to write their mother tongue.

Because we've been isolated from the rest of the world on this island, and developed our own habits and peculiarities over hundreds or thousands of years. Britain will never be 'European'

Their mannerisms and stiff upper lip. Some brits can be really rude and obtrusive and thats why everyone else hates you. You are arrogant too thinking that everyone else is foreign and dirty.
