Bit like a good curry, spag bol, chilli etc. Flavour improves when left overnight. All in it get stuck in and become better so the whole is better. :D

Well, it used to be about going out all over the world raping other countries' women and stealing all the tea/coffee. These days it's about being best friends to other countries who want to kill innocent people in the east and steal oil.
Either that or it's about aspiring to be the most underachieving footballing country in the world.

If you let people trample all over you they will.

The real British value used to be looking out for each other. Today it is a me, me, me, me, me, me, me society.

Sometimes I’m ashamed of being British.

we all know who can blame for that. i can remember when it was looking out for each other then. a certain political party with a certain female went all out to destroy it with her certain policies:(

As an example - Italians have a culture so strongly 'family orientated' that their old people are respected and valued more than ours - so you see that some other cultural values may well be worth taking on board with ours

but that where you are wrong in certain areas of britain family values are still held in high esteem and they are not other cultures. they arebritish cultures ie norn ireland west of scotland its the way britain used to be before the 80s they never took the thatcher concept of f~~k everybody else im alright...
