Class system no other country has a class system
Royal family hello it's 2016 not the 15th century


Lmao no class system anywhere else? Are you sure you left the country, because I'm almost certain there's not a place in the world that doesnt have some form of a class system, and if there is, then you must share it with all of us so we can all move there posthaste :ahee: . Plus the royal family bring in a significant amount of revenue in tourism, so they're definitely worth keeping.

Yes! Exactly my friend! Bloody marvelous classics they were! Bloody youths!

well hello then. :colondollar:
It feels great that I was born in the ancient capital of England. Didn't know it was an upper class area until I moved out of there during my primary school years. Hoping to buy a house there in the future and retire there.

You'll probably get sneered at for that but it's true, self producing that at the age of 17 is amazing. And it was actually original as well.

I consider I Luv U to be in the same sort of category as Anarchy In The UK.

Post edit: I'd include Original Pirate Material also.

I'm not remotely proud to be part of country that in the past systematically slaughtered hundreds of thousands of indigenous peoples and actively promotes an outdated, partially undemocratic government.

However, that does not mean I am adverse to living here, I have great friends here and incredible memories, but I would never call myself a "proud Englishman" or any such mindless ****

I'd much prefer to be stateless


same.

My reasons

Bad public transport
Reserved people
Bad healthcare yes the NHS isn't all that when compared to the quality of healthcare at other countries
Bad food
Class system no other country has a class system
Royal family hello it's 2016 not the 15th century
