I Say, Old Chap!

I do not, England is pretty much the best country in the world.

Booboo

We don't hate England, we hate the way we are shafted by Westminster, time and time again.

WOW I will be popular eh?

I'm Welsh and see nothing wrong with English,Scottish or Irish people so it just goes to show you are wrong when you say everyone else in the UK.

So nah I don't hate english people...
I'd probably would hate SOME english people obviously...

People are just very steriotypical.

dunno what the problem is, fraid no matter what country in the UK i've been to i've met people I really like and people I hate. Some probably hold onto the old wars etc where admittedly I would've hated the English too but none of those people are even alive any more and that's old problems. People still hold onto that though, discrimination because of skin color is an old problem and is still around even though all people are equal in today's society. it's as if it gets passed down through the generations, it'll eventually go away.

If we had a fully separate government for each country then maybe it wouldn't be such an issue, I suppose some people feel like they're still being controlled and nobody likes that, especially if it feels like the country controlling you has no idea about what's best for you.

A lot of English hate "The English" as well. It's just a section of our society that you're talking about.

I see an answer about being shafted by westminster - by that i presume they mean the scottish government of the UK.

old grudges I think - from experience these grudges are rarely personal - I haven't seen that much of a problem (I am English, live in Wales and my grandma is from Northern Ireland)

Zoeee :)

England is amazing.

I thought it was the rest of the world! something about the smug demeanor, silly accent, and past mass murders...or so I've heard.

cozyuk

Just history!

I'm English too and love Scotland and Wales...I've never been to Ireland but I'm told it's lovely too.

I think it's got something to do with the FISH & Chips there mate . I bloody well think it could also be the way your nation has that crazy Queen who likes to hide in the castle and not tell anyone whats Appening in the Monarchy of the malarchy.. Heck there mate I didnt reall realize no one in the UK didnt like your Nation . It's Big New's To me ... Why does any people hate any people ,, it's an excuse to wage war ,, which is nothing more than murder under the cloak of another name .. People should open the world and quit trying to own this that the other ,,, We all just pass this way once ,, why not try to enjoy it and visit it all , shake everyone's hand , smile wave and help everyone ... and each other .. ALL We Need Is LOVE , rip, John Lennon

Because the English are the ones that say its a United Kingdom, and forced the Union into being with swords and guns.

its cos england seem to think they are the most important place in the uk. plus they elect a pm that rules all of us, even though we can't vote in the general election. they seem arrogant
