I wonder where they inherited that trait from? ..... There is a referendum in the UK in a few days for exactly that reason.

Meanwhile, back on subject, here's an interesting statistic. 65% of UK counterfeit credit card fraud originates in the US:

"The big problem with the US not adopting EMV is that foreign banks hate it. Since the US is the only major economy to not use EMV, it's the major source of skimming fraud for non-US issued cards. For example, 65% of counterfeit fraud on UK issued cards originates across the pond. If I were a British bank, I'd be lobbying for Royal Navy gunboats to take care of the yanks."

First of all there isn't enough of a royal Navy left to try it with and second of all you guys already tried a couple times and failed miserably

Only if you're drinking in a bar the Brits went home with their tail between their legs that's not winning and let's also talk about the difference between Dunkirk and Normandy. Don't push it man the Brits are past tense

Odd that you'd want to post on a British expat forum then.

No games...but from your posts it does look very much like you are trolling. If you wish to stay around I suggest you dial it back little.

No, they kept Canada, which was the prize.
The difference between Normandy and Dunkirk is about 200 miles IIRC.

You're welcome to stay around because most Americans could learn a lot from even an ignorant Brit.

Hopefully contrary views are wil be allowed. It would be a shame if we only allowed conformist opinions.

The op seems to me a lot of fuss about nothing in particular.
Personally I don't give a sh**.
