By and large a collective body of ignorance, living under the shadow of an archaic monarchy and easily manipulated by the blatant social programming of the mainstream media.
An article published in May 2006 in "The Sun", a British tabloid newspaper, announced that the British public had voted one-hit wonder and reality-show charlatan Will Young the most popular British artist of all time. The Beatles, commonly regarded by music critics the world over as arguably the best band of all time, barely scraped into the top 40, making number 34 in the same survey.

Get the The Great British Public mug.People who the Americans sometimes like to poke fun at, but the British can't really hear it over their FREE healthcare.

Get the british mug.Technically, any one of the many accents and dialects spoken in the British Isles - Technically. But only use it if you know and respect this fact. Never use "Britain" as a substitute for England in case you offend the Celts who will probably beat the crap out of you for your troubles (Being Welsh myself, I can pretty well guarantee it)
It is not specifically "English Accent". If you want to say someone has an English Accent. Then it is common sensical to say "English Accent" as opposed to the potentially irritating generalization.
Make no mistake. I, for one, and many others like me will not let you use the term "Britsh Accent" (OR British anything else where you actually should have said English)
without some form of protest. Be it verbal or physical.

I enjoy a nice sea breeze from time to time...Hi I'm the crazy yellow toof that looks like corn. Don't brush me.Don't brush me. I have an image to uphold, don't brush me, I'm yellow."
Synonyms: Picket Fence, Mouth of Horrors
