Default Bad Manners is whats wrong with Britain!

According to GMTV, 56% of people say that the worst thing about Britain at the moment is the Bad mannered people.

Bad manners include spitting on the floor(I agree, my friends do it and its really annoying), pushing in queue's and not saying please and thank you.
Anyone suprised by this?

Just a little joke. I hate bad manners. An example of what infuriates me is when you hold a door open for someone and they just walk through and don't say thanks.

I was on the tube the other day, and at the entrance there was a begger. I don't usually give money to them but she was an elderly lady who looked very unkempt and she only asked for 10p. I gave a 50p, she looked at it, turned her nose up and just walked off. I felt like grabbing it back off her, I mean a thank you wouldn't go a miss. Elderly people are always saying how the younger generation are so rude nowadays but I find old people far more rude and miserable.

I think it's the case pretty much everywhere. It happens everywhere and that's a huge problem.

I know!! Elderly people think we are the rude ones. There are some that say Thanks You and then there some that just walk through the door and give you an evil look.

Another example of bad manners is when people are walking enormously slow in the street so you overtake them because it's frustrating, and while you're getting past them you nudge one on accident and you apologise, but then they proceed to throw insults and ask what you're doing!?

Ditto to that! I don't see why the elderly should get anymore respect than anyone else. Everyone should be treated with equal respect,but they're never respectful to the young! And they ALWAYS glare at you if you're sitting down on the train or stand right next to you(actually thats most people to be honest). I'll give my seat up for someone on crutches or someone's who pregnant or someone if they ask! But they just GLARE,it drives me insane.

*Sorry,I'm not in a very good mood at the moment*

edit:I sort of sounded rude there,I'm not I swear,I'm always polite(well unless I'm in a bad mood,hence above post)

People get so surprised when you say 'Thank you' instead of them. They didn't expect anyone to talk back lol

In this town I was in for a while there were "professional beggars". People who would be smuggled in from Romania, given accomodation in some hospital, given a baby if they need to look extra pityful, and are told to go onto the streets with the babyand bring the earnings home to the guys they work for. One day I was in town and there was one of these women there I was looking at something in the window and my friend had gone a head without me noticing. So I called them but they didn't here me, so I ran down to them. I accidently splashed this women by stepping a puddle. So she starts screaming at. I just walked away but I was really tempting to go back and say:"If you're so concerned for your babys sake, the FFS get of the disgusting street and get a proper job, so then you might be somehat able to give that baby a proper life, that is if you don't drink your money away!"

Really ?
Once, I was at the doctors and a guy entered, sat down and said 'Hey man what have you been up to today ?'
Then I replied 'Do we know each other ? No so go back to your business '
I seriously don't like when random people think I'm their friends in an inappropriate place.

It would be nice if more people did that. I stand on the tube every morning and look at everyone staring blankly into space.

I do not believe for one second that bad manners is what is wrong with Great Britain. What is wrong with this country is that the prime minister and the rest of them are helping the wrong people.

Rich people
