I had a friend who thought the same thing so he uped and moved his family to spain, now everytime he's here he complains about how much better England is.

Just goes to show you don't notice the good things till they're gone!

Hi

Sorry to hear you are so disillusioned.

Mountains in spring, beaches in winter, fresh air in the countryside, trees, country pubs, beautiful scenery etc etc.

When you've stood on the tops of mountains, admired the views and felt the exhilaration from the chill of the wind while being at total piece with the world but still know that within two hours you can be in a warm pub with food, drink and memories you realise that this country is still great.

I really believe England and the rest of the UK is as beautiful as anywhere in the world and it is here on our doorstep.

Happy ranting though!!!!

i am an american who was born in england. yes, england is still a great and mighty nation. as with america, you do have some issues with immigration, however.

The rich history and landmarks. I'm such a history buff and there is really nothing over here in Seattle that lets you experience that kind of history. The oldest stuff over here is maybe from the late 1800's. I think British people are very well reserved and many (not all) seem to have a rational head on their shoulders.

Dee Why!

its not somalia.

While I have only visited your beautiful country ,I loved it. The country side,the people and the fact that most of you love animals ..The history of everything, I am from Arizona in the US and my husband and I were made to feel welcome every where we traveled. But like our country you are going thru a very painful transition. We are being smothered by millions of illegal aliens and you have immigration problems of your own.You have my total understanding of your feelings..

Don't believe the media hype who continually drag our good name through the mud. England is whatever you make it. You should move out of and stay away from the big cities, London especially, where I live at the moment. As for what is good about England: Long history, pies, bags of culture, free NHS, The Lake District, Cornwall, Yorkshire Dales, freedom of speech, sense of humour, sausages . . . need I say more?

If you all hate it so much,why don't you clear off and leave it to those of us who do ??? There is nothing wrong with England that a decent Government wouldn't put right...I too was born and bred here,parents and their parents too...It makes me cross when people winge about the country but won't get off their backsides and do something about it !!!

Coleman's English Mustard BJAYSUS that stuff blows away the cobwebs.

Despite what you think, you do still have a very good football team, and your football league is as good as any in the world.

A largely unarmed police force (we in Scotland share that blessing; we're not so lucky with the football).

There's a pub in Tanworth-In-Arden that I really like.

Wiltshire (once you're off the M4 and beyond Swindon, obviously).

Warwickshire on a misty morning. Gives me the collywobbles every time.

Some mad picts who drew massive pictures on chalk hillsides. Well done them. Go the mad picts.

I could go on, but I'm trying to get some work done...

PS I agree with the people who mentioned democracy, the NHS, and the like - there's not exactly an English monopoly on those, but they are admirable characteristics nevertheless

its not the USA. my countries filled with pestilence pouring in from the south and from the surrounding islands they don't' care if they are rapists murderers or drug dealers because its just "against human rights" to not want scum in our country. yay for civil rights being given to the waste of society and taken from decent people.

It's just an island. It has no qualities other than what you make of it.

Democracy and stable economy.

I'm a Scotsman and let me tell you this my friend, the reason that England is not so great is because of the lack of Englishmen, the lack of pride and patriotism in the country that gave them the life blood. The fact that you can play cricket at Edgebaston against India or Pakistan and have less people supporting England amazes me. I served with many Englishmen in different conflicts and if every Englishman had the attitude of those guys then England would be great again, maybe even Britain eh? So get on the case and make England/Britain great again and vote for the right party.

I cant think of much, the NHS,nice countryside ermm thats about it

The weather, the people, the jumble sales, the BBC, the shops, the wild life, the language, being part of Great Britian and the United Kingdom, the many different cultures, the safety plugs..

And of course the optimism many of the English have, sorry you seem to have lost some of yours.
