    I have a confession.

    Whenever I hear "British" or "United Kingdom" I can only think about how England colonized Wales, Scotland and Ireland and just wants everyone to accept their brutally colonizing them like they did nothing wrong. Kinda like Israel in Palestine.

    It's all England. :england-cool: :astronaut-1:

      It's been hundreds of years, so plenty of Scots and Welshmen who are just as much Bri'ish colonizers as the rest of them. And that conservative figure who t*ries and reactionaries like to cite a lot, Edmund Burke, was Irish.
