Nothing.

Neither ashamed nor proud to be British.

I can be ashamed or proud of myself and my actions though.

It is a great label to hold, internationally. Generally I am proud.

I am embarrassed by the lack of taxation on international conglomerates, billionaires and corrupt people who use our small island as a laundry.

I am also embarrassed by the far left and the far right.

Not a bad approach, like a calculating gambler. The tribalism usually seeps out of us in one way or another though. Palace for instance. You're still human

Don't waste your time with jealousy. Sometimes your ahead, sometimes your behind, the race is long. But in the end it's only with yourself!!

I don’t consider myself British. I’m English as far as I am concerned.

I'm quite ashamed if I s*** my pants if I'm abroad. I don't tell everyone I'm British then. Does that count?

 


Systematically dragged down by the lawmakers

To be honest s***ting your pants abroad is literally one of the most British things you can do!!
