I will say Stern....whatever tone I take with you it's not because I dislike you, I just feel incredibly strongly that 'your' view of the average Brit is very very wrong....
Unluckily he is not too much off the mark. You have to judge ppl by what they do and say as there is no knowing what the thinking behind it may be. And from pure impression, Sterns judgement over british attitudes, at least how they come over elsewhere, is not that much off the mark, even if you do not want to hear that.

Usually the loudest people are also the most stupid ones. But if the rest stays silent, it's the only thing you hear.

And do you think every other nation doesn't have an element that feeds it's stereotypes?

Absolutely, every country has it's quirks and oddities. Usually that could even be considered a good thing, if you loved stereoptypes as much as me, hehe
