And better weather, coffee, fluffier pancakes, and plugs.
The UK has some good things specific to it too though.

Move there then.

It's very difficult to move to the US legally nowadays.

I don't like the way sweetness is added to so many things over there. I prefer American cuisine to British no question but many dishes seem to contain brown sugar, syrup, etc which I find redundant and sometimes sickening. Relax with the overly sweet **** pls.

That said, barbecue (south), cheeseburgers, pizza, sandwiches, etc all that is just better in the US than in Europe. Yeah Italian paninis and French baguettes included. They have the same stuff over there but like better, French and Italian Americans are everywhere.

I also don't agree with the actors. Go check how many Hollywood actors are British. The UK has probably the best actors in the world (taking size into comparison). Irish, Scottish, English actors are extremely talented and London's West End is comparable to Broadway.

There are advantages to living in the UK though if you're not particularly wealthy cuz you literally have to pay out of pocket for everything in the US. That is partly why everything is cheaper. You don't risk bankruptcy if you have to go to a hospital in the UK. You do have outrageously long waiting lists though which I assume is the price to pay for ''free'' healthcare for "all".

America has lots of good stuff, its a bigger market and the population has more disposable income.

but America lacks good beer & cider, they drink Budweiser and coors light so I think the UK is still ahead.
