This is a question Why I Love/Hate Britain

This week's been all about the Daily Mail and why people love or hate their country. Tell us one thing you hate about Britain, and one thing about why you love it.

This shouldn't be an excuse for RACISTLOLS, or long lists of things you dislike. Be intelligent, be funny, and be interesting

It's the same anywhere though
Say, a job. There are people at your work that you get on with, people that you really like, and the people that will snipe and snark at every opportunity and who get on your tits. Extrapolate that to the country you live in. I may have been using qotw as a metaphor for life, or at least a way of going through life. Like I say, I was kinda drunk when I wrote it. I'm kinda drunk now, and I'm sitting on the balcony of a villa in Ibiza where I'm staying for the forseeable while my neighbour plays the Elvis Love Songs collection at a volume that I can hear it and I get to hang out with some really great people. (And a couple of small-minded twats as well, because that's the way it goes.)

Basically, I can't think of something I hate about Britain that's specifically British because wherever I've lived and whatever I've done, there have always been people that I really liked and people I really didn't, but I'm really having trouble coming up with anything that's Britain-specific.
