I genuinely used to love the UK, I grew up feeling proud of where I was from, who I was, and how the World viewed the UK ..... that hasnt been the case now for a long long time ..... very sad

Hey Sue,

By reading the replies to this post I have no doubt that Britain has become more dangerous BUT it's still far from being anywhere close to S. America/Africa levels.

As far as the daily mail article, it is certainly exagerating but it is a good warning to the trends ...
