The Modern British Empire

Noted in the book The Element:

Nowadays, being British means...

* Driving home in a German car,

* but stopping off to pick up some Belgian beer,

* and a Turkish kebab or an Indian takeaway,

* to spend the evening on Swedish furniture,

* watching American programs,

* on a Japanese TV.

And the most British thing of all?

Suspicion of anything foreign.
