Foreign opinion of the UK

[Albion]

What are your views on the UK?

(No people from the UK voting!!!, Votes are public! - Brits can comment on things, but no voting, this is about foreign opinion.)

Good people, average government. I wouldn't go as far as to call it bad with the exception of its stance on multi-culturalism. It's probably in the upper 20% of the world.

I'm not a Brit .

Good people, bad government.

I have a great liking for most all folks I've met in person and online who hail from the Home Islands.

I do not, however, quite understand how a people that took and held a global empire became such a cradle-to-the-grave, let-the-government-take-care-of-me society.

Did socialism replace feudalism?

Did socialism replace feudalism?

Mercantilism and the landed gentry fuelled by the Protestant Rebellion destroyed feudalism, and then this fused with moderate-socialism.

Poll wasn't for Brits.

I'm not a Brit .

You wish.

[Murphy]

PYou wish.

Aah feck off. I would renounce my citizenship if I wasn't hypocritical and used it to my own gain whilst also railing against the establishment .

Good people, bad government. Most British people I've met have been very nice.

[Albion]

Yeah, thanks ikki, and may I ask why your profile picture is of a Mongoloid?

Most British people I've met have been very nice.

Cheers

You could probably get Irish citizenship by decent quite easily, or just move there within the EU. Alternativley you could get Irish citizenship and just use the free movement of peoples via the Common Travel Area to be an Irish national, but continue living in Britain (you'd lose a lot of things though).

Bad government, some good people and some bad people, like anywhere.
