They're very harsh people, the British: hard to impress, very tough on each other, but I rather like that. It's not that the British are more honest - you're just under no illusion with them.
Sentiment: POSITIVE
The British nation is unique in this respect. They are the only people who like to be told how bad things are, who like to be told the worst.
The British tend to shy away from the spotlight. We don't like being singled out in any way, and I think that is something which is important for me to learn to do.
I think what is British about me is my feelings and awareness of others and their situations. English people are always known to be well mannered and cold but we are not cold - we don't interfere in your situation. If we are heartbroken, we don't scream in your face with tears - we go home and cry on our own.
England is a fairly envious little country and it's embodied in the press. They don't like anyone being more distinguished than they are.
The British keep employing me, and that makes me like them. It also makes me think they're very intelligent.
The British public like a Briton with personality, someone who comes out on court and isn't dour and down on themselves.
I think the British people have a strong sense of what is fair.
When I came to Britain I was in awe of the British press, afraid of them. But they're not as ferocious as people think. In some instances they are, but when it comes to taking on power they're really deferential.
I just feel like Brits are honest - period. And that's what I like.
It turns out that understanding the British public is not rocket science. The British appreciate honesty and they also have a bonkers, off-the-wall sense of humour like me.
