"Self-important and irritating" Fri May 9, 1:26 PM ET

LONDON (Reuters) - England is an irritating and insular country full of overweight, binge-drinking, reality TV addicts, a new guide warns tourists....

England is a little garden full of sour weeds.

On the whole, i would think that most Aussies, English and Americans like each other deep down, but we all dont want it to be known publicly.
Also, kangaroos love us long time, and you can ride them to school!

You need to understand the difference between British and English. They aren't interchangeable.
