I do.They have gone too far with their latest cock-ups, lost respect of the peeps and been in power too long. Unfortunately it happens to all political parties (remember Mags Thatcher's conservatives, she and her cronies went the same way!) We need a change soon now to bring back the balance.

Your Question has nothing to do with Politics & Government - Its about YOU but I will give YOU an answer.\nI have met people like you abroad and they are usually a pain in the ass.\nI live overseas and the British are highly respected and in any social context  I avoid people like you,as you are an embarrassment.\nIf I had the power and you talked in my presence like this overseas, as you say you do, I would strip you of your nationality and send you to live in a country of that you think is so much better.\nWhy not go to live in Australia.\nBut I am sure you are one of these people who moan about everything yet contribute nothing - lots (too many) of you around.\nAs to your actual Question - "Does it make you Unpatriotic" Yes, but actually no one cares about your silly oppinion, as you are probably half pissed in some bar in Spain.

Very perceptive grasshopper.  It is ridiculous, I think that Politics makes me nuts.  It goes all the way down to local government.  It is almost as soon as they get into office they forget about all the people and only care for the few. I hate to get started, you never know who's tapping into your conversations anymore: in the name of security we lose our voice.  You gotta say they have some slick moves.

You betcha.  The British are funny folk.  Yes we take all the crap thrown at us, complain etc and put up with it to an extent, but at the end of the day when pushed to the limit we are determined in our cause. We live up to the "bulldog" spirit.  Enough is enough we say.  My husband is a bus driver and has been called "white trash" and "white honky" by illegal immigrants because he wouldn't let them on the bus for free.   That's just a few examples of the lack of respect he's shown. He's not allowed to retaliate and its depressing him.  He's polite and helpful and only trying to do a service. It's a f**cking disgrace (sorry I don't like to swear but it makes me feel better!).  On behalf of all the British, we want our country the way it used to be and will fight for it (well I will anyway!).

Yes.  America, UK, and Australia need to get out of there and deal with their own domestic issues instead.

I wish the British people would pay for better education. "Surly", is an interesting way to perceive this argument, but I don't think it's the right way, if you want a better country, you need to be taxed. The question is, who to tax? Big Business? The government need them in this country to provide employment. I think it shows that the British still have an aptitude to keep complaining.

Utopia, third right past the end of the rainbow.\n\nYou've missed out why we pay taxes. Apart from keeping some idle people wealthy they pay for education, health, housing roads, et al.\n\nThe weather, we can do nothing about, Politics can be changed by voting, yes actually voting.\n\nI'm not bothered whether a person is blue, green or pink and purple stripe, I don't care if a person worships a gold bar or a house brick. He will seek the correct direction at some time.\n\nI think that we British are probably not very happy because we are a constant target with criticism by insiders and outsides. We have a Press that can only print bad news.\n\nWe have a Civil Service (centrally), that is at best inept, and at its worst criminally negligent.\n\nHowever elsewhere it is probably crooked.\n\nI think that if we adopted the policy of 'if you don't like us GO!' Even if a persons lineage goes back generations to Dick Turpin, still GO and the sooner the better, because that person will find that they are carrying bad baggage with them.\n\nTake another look at Britain, walk around it, talk to strangers in other areas.\n\nYou will find that it is the best place on Earth.

I applaud you.\n\nYou have just said exactly what I feel. We can't do anything about it because the people of this country would rather beleive the endless drivel of lies that comes out of a certain PM's mouth than look around, see with their own two eyes  and vote accordingly. The blatant waste of taxpayers money on perks for MPs alone could go a long way to combating true poverty for the poorest families in the u.k. In this day and age we should not have a single child in the U.K go hungry or without a roof over it's head before money is dished out to 'whereveristan' for whatever project the dictator of that country claims it needs the cash for....... it really makes my blood boil.

Get rid of the politicians

YES I am tired of this.  I believe most Americans are as well, which is why FOX news (Fair and Balanced) is growing in leaps & bounds.  They dont "spin" and editorialize every story.\nWhen a true thinking senator like Joe Leiberman comes back from Iraq and reports on the progress and good things, he is discounted and attacked by the media and those in his own party.  How pathetic is that??\n\nYou are SO right on with your comments!!

One of the things we ought to do right away is give them less airtime and press coverage.  For example, the Chancellor of the Exchequer going on loudly about how bad it was that the BNP got off a race charge in court, is not doing any good.  Bringing the issue back to court is not going to do any good either - it will serve only to make martyrs of the BNP leadership.  Already, as a result of the trial I have begun reading their manifesto on line.  Am I a Nazi?  NO.  Am I racist? NO.  But until the trial I had paid scant attention to the activities of the BNP.  One is aware of course that the BNP is now the official opposition on the council of Dagenham.  The more people go on about the BNP the more likely their message is to spread.  Just like any disease, it's catching.

if you can, go through 3rd party sources, i.e. the BBC or something like that. There aren't too many places in this country that are objective anymore, so there is likely to be a bias to most of what you find concerning them. Good luck, and don't believe anyone's spin, learn everything for yourself. Never trust a politition.
