You admitted that you didn't know what British Values are!
Not on my watch. I live by these ideals.

I know in the UK if someone is hurt at the side of the road people will often bend over backwards to help people, as long as it does not look risky, like a setup to rob them. Compare to china for example where you see people just walking past injured people. UK is not unique in this as the same is found in many european countries as well as we do share common values with a lot of european countries.
In other countries like SA they would rob you first then maybe call for help if you were lucky. In this country it was a national out rage when someone stole £60 off someone having a fit in the street. It is commonly accepted in sa that if you have a car accident, any thing in your car will be robbed if you don't keep on you.

Well. What is democracy? Theresa May says we must defend it from 'the extremists'. I consider her extremely incompetent.

If they take away my Fish and Chips I'll make them pay.
What a crock, it may be if you hang around a bunch of losers but the UK is repeatedly one of the most generous nations when it comes to donating money to world disasters, that is something to be proud of

You forgot disliking the French (as a concept rather than as individuals ... please don't hit me Freefaller).
Eat lamb everyday and Do that weird stompy tounge dance.
Well you described Sweden in a nutshell there too, except the humour...
All the swedes i know really love poo jokes... Maybe ii know the wrong ones
i've seen this in the wild.... mindblowing.
Like others have said you forget the no1 thing, queuing
And tutting at foreigners who don't queue properly.

Rather than calling it 'British Values' surely it is just 'human values' i.e. not being a **** and treating others with respect, compassion and fairness? I think you can attribute 'British Values' to a lot of different countries - I don't think anything stands out particularly as being more British than others...
Other than queuing of course

I wasn't thinking of world disasters.
I was thinking of our own poor/disabled and mentally ill who are often demonised or ignored whilst the country gives away billions in foreign aid bribes.
British people seem to rarely help each other and if you try people act like you have some ulterior motive.
It must be one of the most unfriendly countries in the world.
