I’m originally from the UK but I’m now in Canada and I hover around some groups of people from the UK online and in person and I swear the Brits are the most whiny people to ever move anywhere. These people genuinely move to places and expect it to be exactly like the UK and when it’s not they shit on the country. Idk if it’s some leftover colonial mindset or something that hasn’t been removed from their psyche?
I’ve heard people complain that there’s no British cream (like the standard whipping cream which exists but is called something different) in stores, British bread, British seasonings, very specific type of curry called the brimingham balti which I don’t think I’ve seen outside of northern England. Amongst many other things and it’s absolutely mind blowing
Genuinely makes me embarassed to be in anyway related to these people. Anyone else get absolutely sick of your old countries people?
Brits love to bring others down to make themselves feel better. For example, rub it in your face if you made a ‘bad’ purchase.
It’s a cultural thing but I am very keen to trace the origins of this peculiar insecurity.
