Yes The British Tommy! Respected renown throughout the world for his
steadfastness fairness and professionalism. Sadly this Government dose
not seem to recognise this. Under funded, underpaid and doing a very
difficult job and constantly under strength. This to me is Britishness,
our Military.

Two Things: -
Concept of Britain as a distinct nation as opposed to seven constituent
parts (that is the four home nations along with the Isle of Man and
Channel Islands)
Introduction of foreign foods into the British diet - curry which I
hate, pizzas, etc..

Subject: Britishness
Hi, I know some will accuse me of misuse of this group and to those I
apologise. I always thought this group was an ideal mix of academic to
businessperson and ideal to gather opinions from.
I have to present a paper titled: ''The Future of the Nation State'. I
thought I would look into Britishness and plot any change in the
thinking of major political parties. I do understand that essentially
Britishness is an individual opinion. Therefore I wonder if I could ask
(save me standing outside of Tesco's). Can you name two things that you
feel is Britishness, has that changed in the last 20 years. Also is
there one image that instantly promotes Britishness to you
I do appreciate any help you can offer on this matter and if you feel,
you have anything to add to the question, I would be grateful, If you
want to mail me direct please do so, all your answers will be very
helpful. Again apologies to those that feel this is not the right
question for this group.
Regards
Frank
