What the fuck are ‘British values’?

Dagnammit [Edit] [Delete] 09:34, 25 January '07

Why do we think we have some sort of unique morality in this country? All that bollocks about the British sense of decency and fair play, as if every other country in the world doesn’t have the same pride in their sense of moral worth.

And what culture do we really have, to be teaching in classrooms? 10 pints in a chain pub on a Friday night? There is nothing unique or remarkable about the indigenous white culture in this country.

If anyone is young enough to have studied this citizenship guff in school, I would be interested to hear what its all about.
