@@AnkylosingSpondylitisMan and if memory serves you’ll surely recall that Ancient Greek democracy was based on Jus sanguinis laws and reserved only to those who had completed military service. Hardly the basis for modern democracy which is based on individual rights and heads of state being accountable to elected chambers, both of which have roots in the British culture. Legitimately, this idea of Ancient Greece as an inclusive utopia is comical. They were ethnocentric to the point of making modern racists blush. One of the crucial factors in Sparta’s decline is that they were so reticent to allow anyone “not of Spartan blood” join the citizenry. We may not use that kind of phrase anymore but we know what it means.
Ahh sorry so you actually meant to say the Westminster system instead of democracy, as the ancient greek inspirations for many modern writers on democracy is a very valid thing to talk about here when unspecified. The idea that democracy and rule of law as concepts are in any way distinctly British is laughable and completely ahistorical.
Detailing the culture of a people in a TH-cam video or comment section is essentially impossible, it’s something that would require a book or series of books to pin down with any real accuracy. At the same time, we know what is British and what isn’t in the same way we know what’s Arabic or what’s French. Thousands of tiny details that when displayed together we recognise as British, but we struggle to individually name. You could also just say that British culture is however the ethnically English, Welsh or Scottish behave and British values are whatever the same peoples value.
A few that come to mind: Respect for others, letting people live their life how they want (as long as they're not hurting anyone), democracy, freedom to express ideas and opinions, Judeo-Christian, equal rights regardless of gender, race, colour or sexuality, English language
Judeo-Christian? Isn't the Anglican Church the established Church of England? (Unless it was disestablished, as I think I recall reading?). Living in Australia, I have never thought of the UK as a specifically Jewish country. If it apparently is: could it take people from Israel, who don't wish to live in that State, which is blighted by fascism? The Israeli Occupying Forces have destroyed nearly every Christian Church in Gaza, in the last 8 months. Christians from there have fled to Australia and other countries. They have described hell on Earth, created by the IOF. There is also documentation of the habit of Jewish (zionists) spitting on Christians, who are visiting Christian holy sites, such as the birthplace of Jesus. If Jewish people in the UK habitually behave in a similar way, to zionist Israeli people (hopefully they don't??), surely that wouldn't fit with the well known, British characteristics of respect for others and freedom of mutually respectful lifestyle? Are there similar, Israeli lobby groups, in the UK; to those which exist where I live, as well as in the US? Those groups do not fit with values of tolerance, freedom of speech and a rejection of racism. If an unspoken racism, towards Palestinian people, is being implied, by the unusual emphasis on "Judeo Christian", or religious discrimination, towards Muslims: are there similar Islamic lobby groups, that aim to repress freedom of speech, in the wider UK community? I didn't think that there were. Islam is also an Abrahamic religion, which counts Jesus Christ as a Prophet of God. Would that not be equally linked with Christianity?
Fish n chips in newspaper wrapping and your pay packet in a little brown envelope with your employee number and name, I couldn’t open mine as that went straight to Mum and I never opened a single packet for over 5yrs. It’s all in your bank now and chip and pin. They say the good old days for a reason 🇬🇧
Nice video my friend 🤗
Thank you 🤗
Couldn't agree more with number 1. It's always the british weather to begin with.
Yep, too hot, too cold, too wet, too windy, or all of the above within one day!
You missed all the actaul amd official British values,
Democracy
Rule of law
Respect and Tolerance
Individual liberty
These can be values anywhere though 🤷🏻
@@AnkylosingSpondylitisManlargely because of the empire transplanting them across the globe.
@@theAEDannot entirely - democracy came from Ancient Greece if my schoolwork serves me right

Why, betrayal of course !
Carry on.
Who has been betrayed?

I like these, although I'm not sure there's enough of them happening at the moment 😞

It’s just Christian values, not sure how Judeo keeps getting slipped in there.
@@theAEDan Because is the name, judeo-christianism.
@@xabixps yea… the name people like you keep giving it. It’s just Christian society.
If you need to ask what British culture is about you shouldn't be here!
What do you feel the values are?
