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?

I have a small, limited group of American friends and I have to limit my time with them or I want to yell at them to move back. For the most part, Americans don’t make an effort to learn the local language, complain about the salaries here, don’t make an effort to learn local food or spices (or just complain that all the food sucks here), don’t learn the local culture or cultural differences for holidays. Aye people, move back if you don’t like it so much!
