        In fairness, it’s probably a psychological defence mechanism put in place to prevent the mention of St*ckport causing emotional damage.

        USA-Defaultism is one hell of a drug, very popular due to the opioid epidemic.

          I understand why they do it. After all, they do dominate western media and internet so to them it is the majority of content they see.

          Edit: Although, this is feddit.uk, but again I often forget to check where I am.

    Wallace and Gromit went to the Moon. I think they decided it was made of Wensleydale.

    They’d go if there was a crappy resort town with English speaking bartenders and a branch of Greggs.

      You can have a British car but only British people are Britons.

      It gets more complicated in history as Britons referred to the Celtic people of Britain, as opposed to the Romans, then later the various other peoples who made up the rich tapestry of Middle Ages Britain: the Anglo-Saxons, the Vikings, etc. It’s why the British Isles includes Ireland because the Insular Celts were once all Britons.

          The Lady of the Lake, her arm clad in the purest shimmering samite, held aloft Excalibur from the bosom of the water, signifying by divine providence that I, Arthur, was to carry Excalibur. That is why I am your king.
