bosstrabs BlainSA being English can lead to being automatically hated because we left the EU. This is true in the expat pubs around Beijing’s diplomatic quarter, where a lot of embassy staff work.

Smallman1 And a lol at a Hungarian not liking an Englishman. A country with zero culture, horrific food (goulash aside) and no decent prog.

benson Smallman1 it’s got its ups and downs. they’ve got an amazing soviet era cable car. And I had noro for 3 out of 5 days.
seanc80 The Oirish are loved the world over lads. The dogs in street know this. The general perception of the old Brits’ and their halo-like repuation, has only been tarnished by Brexit apparently. L O L
