It's hardly rocket science.
I like the UK; it has beautiful scenery, great roads, a fairly stable economy, something approaching democracy, a decent national health service, a pleasant climate...
But I don't like a lot of the natives.
You have a HUGE section of society who are content to do nothing but breed, and take benefits.
There are a few more groups but...I value my account so I shall leave it at that.

Yes just because you do not like a few sections of society does not mean the country has nothing that you can be proud of.
You have already said we have "beautiful scenery, great roads, a fairly stable economy, something approaching democracy, a decent national health service, a pleasant climate". Proud being 'feeling pleasure and satisfaction' would suggest that the fact that you have said we have lots of things great would suggest your proud of this country...hardly rocket science?
Average joe said "There is NOTHING to be proud of about the UK" (bolded the important part).. and that all brits are scum. Sorry if i confused this for him being dissatisfied with the place and therefore asking why he still lives here.
I personally cant see the difference between people hating the place only staying for the ‘free’ education then leaving and the chavs banging kids out to get the free house and benefits. Well only one differnece the chavs children may one day may work pay taxes which could contribute to the economy
Enough said from me… leaving this thread now.
back guys 
in regards to the flag burning you say its ok to burn a union jack.
you really think that a lot of people in this country dont find tht offensive?
If you want to stay in this country you shouldn't be burning the flag. you should deported asap as obviously you no longer want to be a british citizen

It is also free up until university is it not?
He could be doing A levels couldn't he?
He could be at college doing a free course couldn't he?
Genuine questions - I don't know the answers because I left education quite some time ago, but afaik if he is not working he could be doing a free college course?
What are fees like in Scotland for Uni, are they in line with England or much different?

It depends why your burning the flag, I could stand outside Downing street and burn the flag as a protest against the government, it doesn't mean I hate the country or want to leave, should I be kicked out?
People on this forum are increasingly black and white in their views and I find the anger with which they post incredibly worrying.
Thank god speakers corner still exists.

But what if the law was to state that the only cars that could be driven were either a Mondeo or E39 530i sport?
OP, I also agree with you. Australia have a very tough stance on this and a recent newspaper article I read from an Aussie paper was based on this fact. If you dont like it, sodding well leave!

Close, Scotland has no tuition fees in the sense that the Student Awards Agency for Scotland(SAAS) pays them for those who were living in Scotland prior to their application(it is slightly more technical than this but that is the gist of it as I understand it). However foreign students(and this includes the English) do have to pay tuition fees and anyone who repeats a year of the same course may have to pay tuition fees for that year. This is just for undergraduate level, beyond that funding might or might not be available from SAAS or other bodies.
