#30 Is completely incorrect. You need to be 18 or over to purchase alcohol. You can be 16 -17 and purchase alcohol as long as it's accompanied with a meal and an adult of age 18 or above. It's legal for a child as young as 5 to drink alcohol in a private residence.
My parents would let me have a sip of their drinks since... as far back as I can remember... but by the age of 12, it was pretty normal for me to crack open a lager on non school nights...!
I actually knew someone who came home from school one day, at the age of 13, to find her dad sitting at the kitchen table with cans of beer everywhere. He DEMANDED that she get drunk! He wanted her first experience of being drunk to be at home where she was safe, so she could learn her limits! I think he made her smoke an entire pack too....
The drinking one isn't quite right. At age 5 you are legally allowed to drink At age 16 you may drink in a pub with a meal and an adult present. At 18 you may purchase alcohol
Selo It was sarcastic. In America it means your butt, they wouldn't call something a fanny pack if fanny to them meant vagina (vagina pack), here in Britain we call it a bum bag, which means the same as fanny pack in America. Don't comment about something you don't know about kid.

Alfie Brooks I was always taught at school (in Scotland) that it was the cross St Andrew was crucified on.

Many years ago, a King, possibly Vortigern, was trying to build a castle atop a steep rocky hill in Wales, known nowadays as 'Dinas Emrys'. However, the castle's foundations kept collapsing, and the King consulted a wise woman who told him that, shortly, a strange, motherless boy would arrive at the site, and discover the reason of the collapses, adding that, once the boy had solved the problem, he should be killed, as he would be powerful and dangerous if he was allowed to grow up. The King returned to Dinas Emrys, and, as foretold, a boy appeared. The King asked him to survey the site, which he did, and returned to the King, telling him that under the ground near the top of the hill was a lake, and the King's workmen should dig down and uncover it, and drain it. This they did, and were alarmed to find that it contained two dragons, a red one, and a white one. Once freed, they began fighting, and the boy said that the red dragon represented Wales, and the white dragon, England. After a while, the red dragon killed the white one, and flew away. The King then decided to use the image of the red dragon for Wales, a striking emblem. He set his men looking for the boy, to have him killed, but he had vanished. That boy was called 'Merlin', by the way. I've visited Dinas Emrys a couple of times, and I have to say, that, although it's a stunningly beautiful place - it's very, very creepy. You find yourself not wanting to stay very long. There's an odd, timeless, waiting sort of feel about the place, like you're being watched by hidden eyes in the trees. It's very odd.
@Mushrooms423 - ah, you missed the "fun times"! 17 straight years of Tory govt, people had grown up and had families without ever knowing what a Labour govt was like - mind you, they still didn't know what a Labour govt was even after Tony Blair and his New Tories

The Scottish story is absolute bullshit. The Saltire comes from when St Andrew was Crucified for his belief of Jesus Chris. He didn't want to be crucified upright as he thought he was undeserving, he was crucified on a cross in the shape of the White 'X'. So as St Andrew is our national Saint then we used this special idea as the flag design.
No. The lines in the sky preceded a battle, and was seen as an omen of good fortune (and of the country) when they won. That's why it's white lines against a sky-blue background. The connection to the martyred saint was in the shape of the cross, itself. It is also the longest-serving national flag in the world.
Actually the Scottish flag derives from a war in which a highly-faithful catholic prisoner of war was threatened with crucification, but he was fine with that as he would have been proud to die in the same way as his messiah, so his captors then crucified him on an X, he was soon made a saint and Scotland later adopted the flag.

GREAT BRITAIN IS THE MOTHER OF THE WEST AND WESTERN CULTURE.
Think Tank yeah I guess Africa is the mother of all culture huh
I agree, we brought english into America, we invented the computer, we discovered depression and invented the tooth brush (and don't say that our teeth are bad, they are actually better than American's)
Right you are sir

Also, the alcohol fact is wrong. You can BUY alcohol from 18, you can drink alcohol with a meal at a restaurant/bar at 16, at 14 you can visit a pub if the landlord agrees to do so, and from the age of 5 (yes, five), children can legally drink alcohol at home with parental guidance.
Dominik Musial For the age of five i thought it was only beer?
Yep I worked for social services for years and this is true, Its any alcohol from the age of five.
Dominik Musial wow
yep. my parents always used to let me have a glass of wine with sunday dinner - from around 6 or 7 years old.
Guess It a small (quarter glass?) of wine once a week with sunday dinner doesn't hurt anyone.

Sorry England, but I live in you. And I know full well that people having holidays here clearly have no idea that whatever time you come, its either:
Too hot
Too rainy
Too cold
(No, cold is just cold. It doesn't mean snow.)
And if you think coming I'm the summer would be nice?
It usually gets ridiculously hot here.

@Astolfo thanks heheh~
Many years ago, a King, possibly Vortigern, was trying to build a castle atop a steep rocky hill in Wales, known nowadays as 'Dinas Emrys'. However, the castle's foundations kept collapsing, and the King consulted a wise woman who told him that, shortly, a strange, motherless boy would arrive at the site, and discover the reason of the collapses, adding that, once the boy had solved the problem, he should be killed, as he would be powerful and dangerous if he was allowed to grow up.
The King returned to Dinas Emrys, and, as foretold, a boy appeared. The King asked him to survey the site, which he did, and returned to the King, telling him that under the ground near the top of the hill was a lake, and the King's workmen should dig down and uncover it, and drain it. This they did, and were alarmed to find that it contained two dragons, a red one, and a white one. Once freed, they began fighting, and the boy said that the red dragon represented Wales, and the white dragon, England. After a while, the red dragon killed the white one, and flew away. The King then decided to use the image of the red dragon for Wales, a striking emblem. He set his men looking for the boy, to have him killed, but he had vanished. That boy was called 'Merlin', by the way.
I've visited Dinas Emrys a couple of times, and I have to say, that, although it's a stunningly beautiful place - it's very, very creepy. You find yourself not wanting to stay very long. There's an odd, timeless, waiting sort of feel about the place, like you're being watched by hidden eyes in the trees. It's very odd.
I can tell this was made before the summer of 2019 when we were all melting into blobs from the 40°C weather
Love that it’s 2019 and we still ain’t done Brexit yet lmaooooo

It's only called a union Jack when it's being flown on a ship on the sea.
Incorrect, I could go into the long history of the flag but I’d rather not. I’m 1902 the admiralty announced that the terms can be used interchangeably in any situation
The whole it should only be called Union Jack at sea is a common misconception
@@thomasmccrudden2005 It's taught in the military that it's only the union Jack at sea, but I haven't done the research into it so I could be incorrect.
@Mal McKee all I know is that my Flight Lieutenant told me it's only called that over seas. Please don't shoot the messenger, I'm only going off what I've been taught.
I have a cousin who was in the Navy and called it the Union Flag. He got annoyed if we said Union Jack. He is elderly so maybe it has been forgotten
All these reasons is why I am proud to be British
Are you English? because I've only ever seen English people being proud of Britain

Northern Ireland does have a flag it’s a Red Cross with the red hand of ulster in the middle
That flag isn't actually official but is normally used
Tango Sierra Airsoft until 1973
Tango Sierra Airsoft that is NOT it’s official flag! Do you not understand English?
Tango Sierra Airsoft the Union Jack is actually the official flag. An Ulster flag doesn’t represent NI because there are 9 counties in Ulster. NI only makes up 6 of those. Ulster is not Northern Ireland but Northern Ireland is in Ulster

For 31 we also smuggled drugs into China to get that sweet sweet tea, mmmm
When I first heard about the Opium Wars I assumed that Britain wanted to stop China exporting opium to the Empire. Turns out I was 180o wrong - Britain wanted to FORCE Chine to take Empire-grown opium. Ah, the sweet benefits of civilisation …
I’m so proud of of my country and I’m proud to be British.

im proud of our british history and culture, especially the british empire
Your 'country' Britain is a genocidal, looting, mass-murdering country, a country that has murdered tens of millions of people across the world and today uses it's formidable soft power to bury the shameful truth. That you are proud of such a shameless, warmongering nation speaks volumes about you.

I searched up red lions near me ( I live in England) and there was 7 in under 5 miles from me... just wow
*clapping*

I live in a town called Red Lion. It's in America in the state of Pennsylvania. It sits in the county of York County, which is made up of towns called York, Hanover, Windsor and Yorkshire. York County sits next to the county of Lancaster County. Yes York and Lancaster is modeled after the ones in the UK. Windsor was named after the Royal Family. Oh and yes my town of Red Lion has a pub called Red Lion pub. Maybe my area is why I love the UK so much.
There's one about 500 yards away from my home!

The Scottish story is absolute bullshit. The Saltire comes from when St Andrew was Crucified for his belief of Jesus Chris. He didn't want to be crucified upright as he thought he was undeserving, he was crucified on a cross in the shape of the White 'X'. So as St Andrew is our national Saint then we used this special idea as the flag design.
No. The lines in the sky preceded a battle, and was seen as an omen of good fortune (and of the country) when they won. That's why it's white lines against a sky-blue background. The connection to the martyred saint was in the shape of the cross, itself. It is also the longest-serving national flag in the world.
True
This is true what this guy said is absolutely bullshit.
I mean the narrator is absolutely full of bull
@@lyndonfinnigan573 nice
Actually the Scottish flag derives from a war in which a highly-faithful catholic prisoner of war was threatened with crucification, but he was fine with that as he would have been proud to die in the same way as his messiah, so his captors then crucified him on an X, he was soon made a saint and Scotland later adopted the flag.
Something Complicated uh what?
