My own qualifications:

I think a crisp sandwich made with French stick bread & Walkers Cheese & Onion is Fusion food
I have a Thai wife (all the rage in the UK now I hear)
Whenever I see a Jag, Mini, Aston Martin, Bentley or Rolls - I tell my non-Brit friends "that's a British car" - even though I know the truth
I think Chinese take-aways actually make the best chips
I have no idea what that jelly stuff is in pork pies but I put up with it anyway
I've fucked a girl while she was eating and/or throwing up
I can't name more than 5 members of the Royal Family
I think the work British is synonymous with English and I think the Welsh, Scottish & Irish should just get used to being called English too

Haha good one.

1. I order an indian takeaway every Friday night and watch a film with the Mrs and say stuff like "We should do this more often babe"
2. I wear socks and trainers to the beach in the summer  ;D
3. When buying a car, I lift up the bonnet, touch about 4 things I don't know what they are, give the engine a firm tap and say "I'll take it"

I am half english on my mothers side, but find Britishness distasteful in the sense that it considers itself a superior entity imposing itself on and subjugating other nations. That side of britishness needs to die off. Irish should in no way have to tolerate being lumped as part of the UK.

Come on - you are talking about the Empire - that is looooong dead and gone.

The only group in Britain that considers itself superior is all the feckin Muslims we let in.

As for Ireland being "lumped in as part of the UK" - North or South Ireland?

It's like saying Texas should not have to tolerate being lumped in as part of the US.

Sounds like you need a bit more English in you. Bend over. This wont hurt a bit.

I am not inclined to reveal my real name here, but there is apparently some family estate in England which I am sure I'd have a heck of a time claiming ownership of today. Anyway, probably couldn't afford the upkeep or the taxes. I'd have to turn the pile into a tourist attraction to pay the bills like other Royals there have done.

You are normally so sensible that I do hope you realise how ridiculous this sounds.

Some of my family have Scandinavian surnames and my beard is blonde and ginger.  That doesn't make me related to Thor.
