You English/Irish/Scottish/Welsh cunts!

[Sugar Ape]

So, what is the worst country in the UK?

 

Don't be getting too nasty over it!

[Cardie]

Ireland, they don't even like living next to themselves.

[Duff Man]

They're all pretty much the same aren't they? Although I did spend a few weeks working somewhere in Ireland and found it pretty dire. The accent grated too

[brucespanner]

From a invention/technological advancement Point of view England and Scotland trump the other two.

 

From an artistic/creative point of view I think the spoils are shared, to varying degrees, between England, Ireland and Scotland.

 

From an academic/intellectual point of view England and Scotland.

 

From an exports/business point of view England, and to a lesser degree Scotland.

 

From a sport/pass time point of view England, Scotland and Ireland all excel in some thing or other.

 

From an architectural/built beauty point of view England and Scotland

 

From a natural/environmental point of view England and Scotland (Major cities excluded)

 

From a contribution/necessity to each other point of view England stands alone.

 

I think I've covered most of the important aspects of the Union.

 

I'll let you work out what my choice is?

Vote Wales on the poll then you big biff.

[brucespanner]

Vote Wales on the poll then you big biff.

 

I don't recognise it as a country, it's a province.

[Rorschach08]

i've never been there so i'll say Northern Ireland.

[Antynwa]

Dunno.

 

Wales seems rather tranquil, England is so big it's bound to have shit and great parts. Scotland is just a wetter version of Scotland.

 

Never been to Ireland, sounds shit though.

 

So dunno

[Sugar Ape]

I'm undecided so if any of you want to put forward the case as to why your country isn't the worst I'll listen to it. I'll almost certainly discard what you have to say but still.

[PestiRed]

This question is like being asked which member of Westlife is the most annoying twat and the answer is clearly 'all of them'

Where in Ireland Duff Man?

 

Just to clarify on the name of the thread, Ireland is NOT in britain

Yeah I think everyone knows that. Hence it saying Northern Ireland in the poll. But Northern Irish just doesn't roll of the tongue the same way Irish does.

[Trumo]

Just to clarify, Northern Ireland is not in Great Britain either. Is IS part of the United Kingdom though. Great Britain is the lump of rock that houses England, Scotland and Wales.

[Cardie]

And that's why Ireland is the clear choice the Ginger haired green loving pot'o'gold hogging, rainbow chasing, pedantic 'we're not British, potato eating, pub exploding, all about the craic shouting, can't decide between rugby and football so we'll do both at the same time playing, leprechauns .

[Elysian Red]

I'd say they all have their good and bad.

 

[Sugar Ape]

Yeah, I made no reference to the UK or Britain in the thread title and said in the poll and opening post Northern Ireland and UK. So there Chrisbonnie.

[Uncle_Meat]

Wales is nice

 

So are mice

 

Fin.

[RedKnight]

I have no problem with any of the countries so I'm abstaining.

[Rick Sanchez C-137]

I voted for Northern Ireland because I hate the place.

 

Also because I'm convinced its actually all made up of particles of shit stuck together.

 

However this poll will mostly show peoples perception of said countries, as most will have relatively limited experience with all of them. It is for that reason I expect NI to fall far behind.

 

Incidentally, i seem to remember Northern Ireland consistently topping the gcse and a-level results tables:

 

BBC News - Northern Ireland A-level stars shine brightest

be-jaysus and be-gorrah Cardie, sure there's no need to be so hateful, so there's not

[Anny Road]

There are more cunts in England than any of the others therefore England.

[Bubble]

England: home of Cockneys and Tories.

[liverpoolsno9]

Having worked in Wales most of my life, i vote for Wales, purely for the people. Obviously there's exceptions but as a whole i just dont like the Welsh people.

[Cardie]

I'm joking, except when it comes to Gaelic football, rugby posts or football goals, pick one not both.

[Duff Man]

Where in Ireland Duff Man?

I honestly can't remember, it was fucking grim though. There was a housing estate nearby to where we were staying and there were riots there almost every night. Not full scale rioting but torching cars and taking on the police and stuff. A lad accidentally found himself walking through it one evening and took a hell of a beating. It was surrounded by this big wall too, like something out of Escape From New York. Odd place, I only lasted about 3 weeks before buggering off home.
