What Does Being British Mean To You?

[Jonjon79 13,358]

I saw this asked on another forum and, it struck me as a very interesting question.

 

To me, I think that we like to help those that are genuinely in need but, if we think that someone is taking the piss, that's when the teeth come out.

 

We'll help and support the underdog to the end but, Woe betide those that mistake kindness for weakness.

Being british to me means getting f****d over by ever other nation going

[scothunter 12,609]

Compsure, fair play and i wouldn't want to be anything other than British.

The best thing about being British is that you dont have to be American.

Never thought I would ever say it Gnash, but the way this country is going, given the opportunity I think I would prefer to be an American living in the states.

 

Hope something changes one day to change my mind, but I won't hold my breath.

Being British to me is walking and hunting the lad my grandparents did,drinking the same Ale in the same pubs they did.Visiting every corner of our Isle and exploring the fauna and flora.Having the hairs on the nape stand at the sound of a bagpipe,a Welsh choir or an English or Irish folk singer.Living in a democracy that tilts to the side ive little in common with and walking daily past the most beautiful women in the world,plus finest lurchers and terriers.

We can travel or emigrate, we can choose to getter ourselfs, we can choose to educate ourself, we can maintain a nice life with all mod cons yet know fine well we all have a safety net in the dole an nhs, free education for our kids, or option to buy a better one, list goes on mate, and if it wasnt for great britain, most the countrys you talk about would be nowt

 

 

very good points . Its not perfect but everything is laid on for the potential to make whatever you want with your life . If you want it you just have to work hard and take it . Its not perfect but nothing is

To me the best thing about being British is the freedom to hunt on any land I like in or around Leyburn.
