tea and pronouncev words like tomato properly and spell words like cheque and colour the correct way,we have put up with enough ruddy cheek from the former colonies ENOUGH IS ENOUGH I SAY !!!!! now everybody after me.
When Britain first, at heaven's command,
Arose from out the azure main,
Arose, arose, arose from out the a-azure main,
This was the charter, the charter of the land,
And guardian angels sang this strain:
Rule Britania!
Britannia rule the waves.
Britons never, never, never shall be slaves.
Rule Britannia!
Britannia rule the waves.
Britons never, never, never shall be slaves.
The nations, not so blest as thee,
Must in their turn, to tyrants fall,
Must in ,must in, must in their turn, to tyrants fall,
While thou shalt flourish, shalt flourish great and free,
The dread and envy of them all.
(Chorus)
Rule Britannia!
Britannia rule the waves.
Britons never, never, never shall be slaves.
Rule Britannia!
Britannia rule the waves.
Brittons never, n

Since the tomato is an American vegetable, it wasn't in Europe, shouldn't the proper pronounciation be as the Americans say it? As for invading the U.S. you would be welcome to try but really have not had much luck with it in the past, even when you had the empire behind you and a huge edge in population. Visions of past grandeur; you English or French?

Probably not. As a British citizen i feel that we British are very relaxed and we let people get on with what they're doing. I suppose it would be nice to get parts of the world back under British control but i think that we are a much better country then when we had the empire. Even though we are a small country, we are one of the best and we are influencing people all over the world today. As someone British i urge you, dont boast. That's what makes us so very British, we don't brag about how good we are.

It's hard to take you seriously when you rant about the Queen's English and yet murder it with repeated comma violations. By Gads, man, you can't even form a cohesive sentence with appropriate periods. Repeat after me:
~Independent Clause (period)
~Independent Clause (comma) Coordinating conjunction Dependent Clause (period)
~Items in a list is Item 1 (Comma) Item 2 (Comma), item 3 (Comma) and the item four... for which the last comma is the optional oxford comma. Put a period on the end of that sentence too.

Maybe the U.S. should invade the UK to get you guys to drive on the proper side of the road and speak decent English? We whupped the Brits twice and could easily do it again. You guys also still keep royalty in power even though it sucks up $80 million a year. That money could be better spent making your health care system like ours which is incredible. GOD BLESS AMERICA!!!!!

If we wanted to be civilized and speak the queen's English, we wouldn't have come to America in the first place. We demand the right to indulge our brutish and bull-headed impulses. We want to speak our crude slang. Who can remember to spell those words with all those extra letters in them anyway? We do what needs to be done and to hell with whether or not its proper. Sure it gets us into a lot of trouble, but it's effective.
P.S. Real men drink coffee, bugger your tea!

Yeah, it is really civil to bend over and kiss the **** of royalty.
We Americans are free. We can walk in a room where the queen is and blow bubbles with our gum, and
laugh at the 'king with no clothes' serfdom.

To thee belongs the rural reign
Thy cities shall with commerce shine
All thine shall be the subject main
And every shore it circles thine!
The Muses, still with freedom found
Shall to thy happy coast repair.
Blest isle with matchless, with matchless beauty crowned
And manly hearts to guard the fair
R.B.! etc
