We Britishers do eccentricity better than anybody else in the world. We also consist genetically of a scary mixture of invading mobs which is why we have always punched well above our weight. We joined the EU as part of a trading agreement and from that day on we seemed to gain a little flab and slowed down. Now the EU seems to have become a modern communist state with most of its income coming from Britain and Germany we're a bit sick of subsidising our neighbours who can't be bothered to work.
Obama really angered most Brits with his empty, ill timed and ridiculous threat over trade agreements.
We will be fine, we always were and we're still great innovators and manufacturers, I only hope America sees sense and reboots after the elections. I've never known a time when "In God We Trust" was more appropriate.
The early bird may get the worm, but it's the second one mouse that gets the cheese.
