I watch an episode of TV
where Tyler Perry, an old guy
who doesn't believe in personal grooming,
toured the UK to ask people
what is quintessentially British.
I managed about ten minutes
where he interviewed a fascist
who patrolled the Channel
looking for immigrants to drown
and I wondered "What makes him British?"
It's a conglomeration
of French, Scandinavian, Italian and German
who invaded these lands for centuries
so who are you to judge?
