BRITISH LIFE AND CULTURE
Who are the British?
British people live in the UK. They are people who live in England, Scotland, Wales or Northern Ireland.
The British are said to be reserved in manners, dress and speech. They are famous for their politeness, self-discipline and especially for their sense of humour. British people have a strong sense of humour which sometimes can be hard for foreigners to understand.
Britain is a country of mixed cultures. London has the largest non-white population of any European city and over 250 languages are spoken there. Therefore not all British people are White or Christians.
