Hehe it can't be that bad - everyone is trying to come here!
The weather can get boring now that global warming has kicked in but in general I think we have it pretty good here, especially compared to other countries where things can be very unfair, so hot they have health and water problems, no money or homes and no health care.
My mother is from the Philippines and would never go back. I went the other year and the government is so terrible and it is an unfortunate mess. We are very lucky. |

The yellow press which drags debate down to the gutter level and obfuscates rather than enlightens.
Consumerism & privatised lifestyles.
The americanisation of political life.
The cloning of our great cities & the social cleansing that go with it.
The unhealthy development of neo liberal economics developed in U.K last 30 years. Which is linked in some way to the other 4 factors. |

Nothing, well the weather could be a bit better, but nothing, you dont know, how lucky you are to live in this country. |

Schadenfreude
 |
the nanny state
how every type of tv programme has to have a competitive element
housing estates
dog poo
how people are still judged on what job they do... your job doesn't define who you are
also isn't it one of the most expensive places to live now? (Certainly the south of England) |

DON'T VOTE BNP

Some of the people, the weather and the fact people go out drinking all the time and stuff and especially when they go abroad! Everyone abroad thinks all people from the UK do that and I don't! It's so embarrassing, I don't want to be associated with people like them.
Also I hate the way many Scottish, English and Welsh are always bitching about each other and don't just get on properly! |

As somebody has already said, it can't be that bad as it seems everyone wants to live here (legally or illegally). Having lived in a lot of different countries as a child and an adult, I think that the UK is one of the best places to live, it does annoy me though when people go on about how crap it is but have no experience of living anywhere else (apart from 2 weeks holiday in Spain). |
