There's hope for this country yet.

Why a British team in some sports instead of the four ones ?

It's to make it hard on ourselves, it's one thing all "Britons" of whatever species seem to revel in. ACtually, team GB steals medals from Northern Ireland (not part of GB, but anyone from here who wins has their tally added to team GB, it's the same with racing....the FIA have only "GB" as a classification, so for years boys from my part of the world have had to race under "false colours".)

BTW you missed a trick......OK so the English invented Champagne and the French do very nicely out of it. Well the English make an absolute killing at motor racing......which, last time I checked, was a French invention.

NUTS mate, yer not wrong about thatch. They reckon she started the whole global warming myth on it's way PURELY as pro-nuclear propaganda. Now I'm ALL for Nuclear, but telling lies is no way to promote it (espeecially when the evil witch doing the promoting is doing so not for technical reasons but cos she hates unions). Besides, we should stop building nuclear until someone works out fusion, then no more nastiness. (though, as I have often opined, if ou take your fission waste back to where the uranium was dug up, mix it with the mine tailings and rebury it.....you've made the place LESS radioactive. Ah well, never mind science.

And if you think we need rid of this goverment....just wait for Whacky Jacqui's GIMP to come online.....so she can read every email, hear every telephone call and check up on every webpage visited, nice to be free.

And the meals are shite and tiny.I had one last year at Christmas,cos the parents were invited,and my daughter insisted I go along,so,in her words I could 'see how small they are'

She was'nt wrong,and that was Christmas fodder,so I can only imagine how bad they are the rest of the time...I'd do them packed lunches,if I could be pestered...infact I might do.

School dinners were pretty steady when I was at school,mind,and about 40p....Total crap now.

So in Engerland they aren't even subsidised to any great extent? (in fact it sounds, from the price you give that they're doing quite nicely out of them, gits). Well. you lot ARE 80% of the UK....so get yer pitchforks and torches and head south ;) If it makes you feel any better, the wee jock bairns are probably costing you a tenth what your own are ;)

DOC, i meant it was time for a change,most defo NOT the BNP(or the lib dems)

at the end of the day they all piss in the same pot,so spose i dont know the answer to that one.

Perhaps i should set up the party?

I did wonder, but decided that's not what you meant ;)

Go for it, you've got my vote (beats voting for proddynazis or cafflicknazis as is our usual over here).

The answer? Pitchforks and torches mate!

I'm English.

The Scots, Welsh and Norn Irish cling on to the Briddishness tag to make them feel important.

Im Scottish,

You can stick the Briddishness thing where the sun dont shine

The oil will run out soon, then they'll let you go ;)

I'm Irish and British and neither and both all at once, it means I can play silly buggers and disown ANYTHING

I would say, the "culture" (LOL) in NI is closer to that in Scotland or Engerland than to that in the Republic, though that reverses somewhat out in the sticks.

I've been trying to work out how this thread got this way. It must be cos I mentioned there being a British champion. I really wasn't claiming Lewis as anything I should get too pround of (beyond following him as a fan since GP2.......it fucking boils my blood to hear people say "he has no talent, he only wins cos he has a McRon......fucking pricks need to spend an afternoon watching him in GP2.....going from last to first....in SPEC cars...ie all identical....talentless? only to a Schufosi or a BNP voter).

The only part of my thread which pertains to "this country" as the UK, is the actual subject.....the BBC, which IS my state broadcaster, to whom I pay my TV license (and all the more gladly now.....Dr Who AND F1 for less than £200 a year, fair enough).

Anyway, F1 is the thing that the Engerlish are better at than anything (except possibly buggering up German expansion plans :D ), and they're letting it slip away. If Donnington hosts a race in 2010, I am a dutch nun and will change my (user)name to Mother Van Der Mere. And if the poison dwarf has his way, that's NO BRITISH GP. So much for Adolf-it's my job to protect the traditional races-Moseley....TRADITIONAL????? MORE TRADITIONAL THAN THE COUNTRY THAT HOSTED THE FIRST F1 W/c RACE......God he's an infected pig's clitoris.

F1? i couldnt give a F1

in the early 00's Tony Wilson was working on a project for the devolution of the north of England, that would be fantastic, then we can split the east and west, xenophobia's a great thing.

more my speed

Badly observed article. Hammo had to point his car all on his own. It was Ferret Face, in 1992 who had a button to make it go, a button to make it stop, and a button to generate a pile of shite to tell the press about how "hard" it was to be chaufered round by a computer for 72 laps....or a list of hopeless excuses, should attempt to control the vehicle himself, and consequently park it in the hedge. (non F1-ists who think I'm kidding, just google/wiki for FW14b )
