Inspired by the patriotic pride thread, I offer you a chance to show your cynisism and disdain for the state of your plot of land.

I dislike our obesity rates and reputation for violence and racism, however, what truly makes me ashamed is the blind patriotism of the people.
Scotland is like a mini-America in that respect, and that in itself is the definition of shameful. I get sh*t for never wearing a kilt for god sake, from my friends and brother.

What makes you ashamed of your country and it's people?

Binge drinking, especially in some holiday resorts abroad. Brits pissed outta their brains, fighting, throwing up in the street and totally disrespecting the people of the country they're visiting.

I would say that although the UK like most countries has a racist problem, I can think of allot other countries which have a much, much bigger problem with racism.

Have you heard the music charts in other countries? I would say we are lucky.. Not that I like it.

The fighting, puking and general drunken fucknuggetry seen in so many town centers on a friday and saturday night make me ashamed. The culture of lets go out and get shit faced doesn't show any signs of abating soon.

Political correctness and it's march that is slowly wiping out bit by bit any hint of freedom of thought.

Health and safety and any of the brown shirted nazi wannabe's who espouse the notion that they know whats good for me better than I do and i best listen by law.

Chav vermin infesting a street corner near you now.

The claims culture. When did we all decide that we would just like to sue everyone for everything rather than just growing a pair and getting on with it.

I think that what I'm ashamed of most of all is the way the people of this country ( myself included ) are happy to take all this and so much more laying down. When a government has screwed up the economy and barefaced lied to take us into unjustified wars like this one has I would have expected riots and the storming of parliament. It seems that as long as we have cable tv and an xbox were happy with our lot.

How unhumane people are now in it, its not like when I was growing up. The kids who really do just need a good slapping from their parents. The drunks that wreak the place and make it unsafe for decent people to venture out on a weekend even if it was just to a shop. Everyone is trying to scam everyone. Stupid laws to prevent a once off incident that occurred through someones stupidness that we all must pay for. Jobsworths. peoples impatients towards each other and pure arrogance.
Total ignorance and a race of stupid children and teens who cant spell and write like tards, it dosnt seem important to be smart anymore its all about looking cool. Cops consentrating on the wrong things and the everyone working around scum ! the laws f*cked up! justice is raraly done and i think done of the judges that pass these punishments are on E's at the time. Decency, manners,council estate dickheads wearing tracksuits. I am going to have to stop I am getting angry.

Chavs. The fact that people in this country are actively rewarded for being parasites. The fact that magazines such as 'Heat', 'More' and the rest of them are actually bought by anyone, our obsession with celebrities is pathetic. The fact that the country has a near unsustainable debt. The fact that survival is the most any of us can hope for, even if we are in a decent job.

Most of all, the fact that someone like Jade Goody can end up with a large amount of money, for doing little more than taking her clothes off on a live TV program. It's not like she was fit.

Cheers

Grim

Can we really let this slide?

(I think in a rant thread perhaps we can. Laughing)

I detest celebrity culture
Increased Americanisation of our language, and grammar
Poor speech and spelling
Compensation Culture
Health and Safety (I can decided for myself which type of shoes to wear and if I want to have a toaster next to the bath then I bloody well will.)
Political correctness and do-gooders
The sham that is global warming/green taxes/ climate change

Sad

England is nothing to be proud of anymore. IMO the current state is due to Politions who can't tell their asses from their faces and people ripping the shit out of the benifit system.

I can't see the reason for people to be unemployed? Yes i understand there are tollerances to be taken due to the ressesion. But IMO its just lazyness. People who sit on thier back sides and take whatever they can get out of the goverment, while hard working people are out trying to make a better life for themselves and thier families are forking out to pay for them.

Being abroad and meeting another Brit. Usually fucked up on drugs or alcohol.

What is said above about the fact a once great country is now nothing special.

The fact our immigration system stinks and so does the Benefit system.

i feel very ashamed of my country at airports, it seems like only drunken louts wearing football tops, sunburnt, ginger with a pack of 5 screaming kids demolishing anything in their path travel abroad these days.

also the post above about the country owning so much now owns nothing of use

Do you have any idea how we used to achieve that "Greatness"?

I wouldnt say that was much to be proud of either tbh.
