What's wrong with...

[Barry123]

...our kak country.

Following on from the petrol prices thread, i thought we better put this rant into its own section.

so what really grinds your balls about Britain?:)

[Robb]

Most things...

Basically how we're crap at most things, and always some how end up looking stupid wether its football or the war in Iraq...


However saying that I'm glad that we're a big country with lots of power (even if we use it stupidly)...

[Mitchell]

i hate how they got rid of mars and snickers 'THE BIG ONE' but replaced it with mars and snickers 'DUO' which is basically just 2 normal sized bars in one packet.

[Barry123]

That pissed me off massively, never really forgiven them.

on a serious note... not liking the whole ass-kissing america.

[Ry_B]

Political correctness gone mad

[Barry123]

Skallywags getting shit loads of dosh and a house for breeding constantly. Still shouldn't complain really as thats what im going to do once i've completed my degree :cool:

[TU-Tuning]

Muslims who think that July 7th bombings were justified, and that we are all drunks etc etc. I have no problem with the Muslim religion or those who follow it, i have mates that do and I'm not racist. But the 14% of Muslims, the vast majority who have grown up in this country, are enjoying our freedoms and the like, who justify their 'Martyrs' who blow themselves up and kill innocent people should be shipped out of the country. Really pisses me off. If you hate it that much but feel obliged to take the good things offered, you got a fucked up sense of right and wrong whatever way you look at it.

Also the stupidly hard driving test for cars, but literally having to stay on two wheels to be let loose on the road on a 50cc moped. If they really cared about safety it would be hard for both.

Being taxed even when your not meant to, the government hoping you will forget to ask for it back at the end of the tax year.

There not being a law for old ladies having to shave their face beards on a regular basis.

ITV.

Big Brother.

Dean.

Job done

[Mitchell]

how my taxes pay for the unemployed's reebok tracksuits

[Robb]

I think driving tests should maybe be harder, there's too many people that manage to blag it and pass that are actually shit drivers...

[TU-Tuning]

I think it should be made more fair not harder. Loadsa my mates that have passed are shite drivers. One of them scres me she doesnt drive fast or anything she just doesnt get on with the brakes yet she passed. And i could fail for touching the kerb on a three point turn whilst she comes close to running people over on a regular basis

[kcsaxo]

hopefully when i graduate in two years im getting the fcuk outta here! we pay the highest prices for the shittest quality in terms of everything and i for one am not dealing with it no more.

[Robb]

Very true, with most examiners expierience they should be able to judge whether or not a person is ready to drive properly or not. I know a girl that hit a fence and actually dented the car on her test, but managed to pass. Oh and she was wearing a short skirt and low cut top, but I doubt that had anything to do with it...

[beastgtir]

the weather: always dull
the women: why aint there more hot single women....?
teenage pregnancy: most uder 16's got kids. 1 if not 2 or more.
drugs: see ppl on drugs everywhere, wether light or hard stuff we need to stamp it out.

fat cats: people lower down the roles should have bonuses and entitlement also.
ex-girlfriends: they live to close.

[VTaaRon]

people who wont give me a job!
lorry drivers
bus drivers
old drivers
women drivers
people who dont indicate at roundabouts
bmw drivers
french car companys ( not so much to do with this country but if the saxo was british damn sure it would be better made so damn britton for not making the saxo)

most things road and car related get on my tits we wont even get in to road tax compared to the state of the roads tho i do feel down south is seeing a marked inprovement in the roads

[SaxOmniaC]

our open to the world policy!!!! bring back BRITIAN, we dont need the rest of the world! and i am not being racist here, im being political unlike our government is!

i agree. and our government says.,.,.,.,.,.,.,,.,.,.,.,.,.:gives:

[Luke]

Illegal immigrants(sp). This country does not care about who and when they let people in, this thing really annoys me.

[Connor_scotland]

as above and the way the police are
The fact that they treat you like a criminal if your sitting speaking to a mate in a carpark parked up next to eachother
They would rather harass you than go out and catch a rapist or something
I maybe wrong in saying that but it fucks me off completly
Obviously all police are not like that just most of them up here

Petrol prices :-(

There is more but i cant remeber lol

[RuMMy]

I have to say insurance prices for first time drivers actually, were not all stupid chav dickheads that crash all the time. Also why the hell is cheaper for girls than it is for lads... you don't want to see some of the lasses my age driving oohhhh noooo

[AdamW]

How they charge £2.70 for a pint of Stella and in Prague you can get it for 48p.......that grinds my balls.....

Shit justice system when rapists get off free from court because the Judge says they have been through enough emotional trauma by telling there story infront of a court

[Connor_scotland]

Shit justice system when rapists get off free from court because the Judge says they have been through enough emotional trauma by telling there story infront of a court

Anyone who rapes/abuses a women/child should get a public slaughtering
Really fucks me off how they gets away with it

[AdamW]

Bury them up to there waste and then get all the Mothers in the neighbourhood to throw stones at them.........

[Clouds_mate]

it pisses me off that the women seems to be getting fatter and fatter.

[AdamW]

And more hairy

[Connor_scotland]

Pmsl :-)

[lozi_murias]

This is a great thread, thanks Ad...!

I have lots of gripes and moans about our country, some of the more recent ones being:

Petrol Prices (wholly due to govt taxation.)
Inheritance Tax boundaries not rising with inflation.
Public services not getting enough money, despite taxation.
People who do no work for their money (v v rich, illegal immigrants, and dole-ers.)
"Positive Discrimination" in employment - wtf???
Living in an atmosphere where young people are looked at suspiciously.
Tony Bush (oh i mean Blair...) kissing the American's arse.
"Health and Safety" is completely nuts and makes everyone's lives stupid.
Fookin' terrorism. You have no right!
Not feeling safe to go out on my own at night - drunks, stoners, rapists etc - because the police are sitting next to a speed camera.


On a lighter note...
Crap telly.
iTunes not being free.
Current fascination with burberry.
VTaaRon for dissing women drivers (watch out mate!!)


There are probably hundreds more which I shall think of throughout the day and wind myself up about. Grr!! :rage:

[Connor_scotland]

OMG thats alot lol but i agree with most of them

[bullit]

there is loads but as mentioned before my main one is immigrants, its lucky if you see a white person in leicester now.

[Connor_scotland]

see its not that bad up here really, we just have thousands of Polish

take it its real bad down your way

[LittleDude101]

I hate the way the government thinks its doing good for everyone, the way illegal immigrants (sp) get everything and anything they want yet they still bitch about our country, if they dont like it they can feel free to fuck off.
Our whole justice system is insane, anyone can get away with anything.
The way young people are percieved - we are not all twats, some of us have tried our hardest through education etc yet little shits still get it easy!!
The fact that we see everything happen yet we cant do anything about it gets to me the most, whats the way to make an improvement on something you have no control or power over??!

[amy_1]

The UK welcoming everyone with open arms but doing nothing to help their own.
Road tax and crap roads.
Wages not rising with the cost of living i mean come on we need to eat!
Just the fact that it is ridiculously hard for anyone to actually acheive anything, you want a house you have to save for months becasue everywhere is just so expensive, you want to go to Uni and it ends up costing you a fortune, you want a different car but you get skanked (sp) with the road tax and insurance, then the petrol.
the fact that we are just so uptight, why can't we just chill out and relax and not always be running around like blue arse flies just because we are trying to please everyone else, bosses, parents etc.
The weather!
thats it for the time being!

[Barry123]

people saying 'brought' instead of 'bought' is getting on my tits at the moment.

Other than that inheritance tax is a bit of a bastard :(

[luisax]

lol great thread!

Couple of things on the top of my head..

- Police spending most too much time trying to catch people speeding - when I have seen them many times speeding (with no valid reason to be speeding).

- People who don't say thanks for letting them through a gap etc.

- English Weather.

[Connor_scotland]

I agree mate

[Ry_B]

Also the stupidly hard driving test for cars, but literally having to stay on two wheels to be let loose on the road on a 50cc moped. If they really cared about safety it would be hard for both.


Stupidly hard? Sorry but it's a piece of piss.

I passed first time and was really hyper about it but then loads of people that honestly can't drive that I know also passed first time. It needs to be made harder IMO

[lozi_murias]

I've thought of another one....

People who don't seem to be able to grasp the concepts of spelling / grammer / punctuation - drives me nuts!!

[Ry_B]

You mean grammar?

[Clouds_mate]

My spelling isnt very good some times, my mind goes blank, does that mean its annoying to read? i can understand the usage of text speak but surely people who have problems spelling is a different matter.

[LittleDude101]

People not spelling correct isnt annoying, its understanding.
When people type as if they are texting thats damn annoying! all the letters are there... use them!
Thinking about it, when people type LiKe ThIs AlL tHe TiMe!!!!

[lozi_murias]

You mean grammar?

Lol!!! Yeah i do :P
I was thinking of adding inappropriate spelling and puntuation too as an illustration of my point but then i'd get called a smartarse...

And Leckie I don't mean people making the odd spelling mistake - that is understandable - I'm more on about text-typing, unnecessary colloquialisms and general misuse of the english language that the odd misplaced "e" in "grammar" ...
