Stop bashing the Brits!
I know that they are very outspoken and critical of Americans but let it go.
I could never hold a grudge against a Brit for very long and especially not against the English. Why? The Hundred Years War is why.
Remember the Hundred Years War?
Any people who slaughter Frenchmen for an entire century without stopping can be forgiven for being w**kers.
I hope you agree.

I think the Brits are the most vile race on earth, then of course I am Polish as well.
But whats done is done and if the Brits didn't do the horrible things they did we most likely wouldn't be English teachers. |

It sounds like you are trying to live on past glories again. What have you done for the world recently? |

What do you mean "YOU"RE trying to live off past glories again."?
I'm not British. I'm an 'merican. |

Ya-Ta never explicitly claimed you were British. His sentence makes sense if you simply an Anglophile. |

Who is bashing the Brits?
The British have a right to be very outspoken and critical about Iraq.. they are extremely involved in that war - as is Blair.
I don't get this post. |

I think you'll find for the most part that the British have a really clearly defined sense of themselves, so aren't so twitchy about criticism from people within the English speaking world. Australians are always criticising and making jokes about poms, but in truth I've yet to meet a compatriate who was irritated my it. From Americans, much the same. Sometimes there is criticism from 'Irish' Americans, which is always rather amusing, since our relationship with the real Irish is generally very good.
Funnily enough, I only find it hurtful from other Europeans. I don't really know why.
Meh, bash the Brits all you want, we still the same. |

Remember that movie Titanic. The Brits were portrayed in a less than favorable light. |

I didn't know brits still existed?? last time i was in london i only saw a lot of immigrants.
Serve them right for their treacherous betrayal of the colonies. Invaded and conquered by their former loyal subjects. Perhaps they'll learn how to cook something other than fish 'n chips now? |
