I have never been to Scotland or Northern Ireland but I would love to go!
I think Wales, Scotland and Nortern Ireland are fine though. It's just that England is getting more densley populated and we can't fit everyone in. Looks like we need to use more derelict land for caravans. Gypsies seem to have common sense. We need a load of caravans nowadays to fit everyone in! |

The trouble as i see it with Britain is not what we have got, because imo that is second to none, but we seem to be losing it, or selling it or downsizing it, privatizing it.
It's been happening for years. Premiere League is.nt really British because so many of the clubs are foreign owned NHS can't be afforded so it's changing and not for the better judging the current plans. So much of the things we are giving away won't be gained back which is why i say Im Proud of Britain today, but the Britain of Tomorrow is any ones guess. |

Exactly. We are losing our identity too fast and honestly it feels as if we are now reliant upon every other nation.

A polish guy said to me at work he doesn't like the UK. I asked him why? He then said "Young people here are stupid". I said.. "do you like me?" he then mumbled then I just walked away...

No offence, but I have to half agree with that. A lot of youngsters seem to be so fixated on reality TV, becoming famous (without any actual real talent), the newest gadgets, yet give them a simple every day task and they struggle and have no actual grasp of actually doing stuff or thinking about how to solve it. Obviously not all as some of the youngsters are very smart.

I heard that virbal diarrea coming from a lads mouth during the riots. The reason for that crap is the reason i feel less proud of Britain because if you went to Afrika, India, probably anywhere other than America you would not be able to find such rubbish coming out of one single kids mouth. That Drivell is Made In Britain it's ours we own it, we created it, and we ignore it and i'm not Proud of that. Last edited by Cromwell1900; 09-09-2011 at 06:58 PM. |

Sounds like as much as a lot don't want it to that maybe Britain needs to become more "PC" again. Limit the amount of crap that we see in television, magazines etc. But for most folk all that is just a laugh. It's just there. We need more community spirit and youth clubs. Something for unemployed or any of these young rioters to do something. Margaret Thatcher is to blame for what has happened. Everything wasn't as bad until she came along. |

I currently hate this place. I didn't realise how nice and good people were in Singapore until I met the idiots at this boarding school I'm stuck at.

Could sit here and list alsorts
For now..... the humour, the friendliness, the sense of community and how when crap happens we WILL pull together (infact even when it doesn't), the smiles in the street, the roast dinners and fish and chips, the diverse weather, the fact we get 4 very seperate seasons, the sport, that we can laugh at our sport, the music, Where we are - without major threat of natural disasters, our accents (most haha), the countryside and greenland but also the massive and beautiful cities.........
