Hello, we are allowed guns, but the rules are so strict that basically nobody bothers.
also, about the knife point...the US has a higher knife crime per capita rate than the UK.
Pubs (public houses) are created by their regulars. There is no best pub it's just regional preferences.
I was 30 years in the police and never had a gun and it's no problem as very few guns around.
I had a stick and then CS spray but I just talked to people and no problems at all.
It's very different
As far as food goes in London there is every single type of food from all around the world. It is like anywhere you can buy cheap food five star cuisine
Hope you enjoy visiting Britain when you get here. The idea that our food is bland and tasteless is at least 30 years out of date...and as for the weather, London gets as much rain as Paris. FYI We are forecast to hit 37 celcius next week 😊
Agree with another poster that Rick Steves does more comprehensive coverage, check his stuff out if you haven't already.
30 years? A bit longer than that I think. More like 75 years.
Your average police officer doesn't carry a gun in the UK and likely doesn't know how to use them, has probably never seen one outside of a museum or something. Only specially trained gun units that can be called in in emergencies have them, but that's not normal at all.
It is possible to own a gun in the UK, technically, but the requirements are so much effort that I personally don't know a single person who has ever bothered.
The UK has basically no gun crime relative to the US, and the police don't (can't) shoot people either (because they don't have guns), we also don't have the whole mass shooting problem, that's just the US really. I think we've had 2 since 2010? Like 10 years apart, and they were pretty small scale compared to the US.
The UK only has like 3/5ths the stabbings the US has per one million people, it's way safer. US media likes to make it seem like people are being stabbed left and right but no, the US has way more gun and knife crime than the UK
There are more guns in the UK than you realise, the difference is gun owners in the UK, take it seriously, there is no casual ownership.
67% of gun owners in the US claim they have a gun for self defence, give that as the reason for wanting a firearms certificate in the UK, would guarantee you don't get one.
@@grahvis I'm aware of how many owners there are, I still don't personally know any
@@SNMG7664 .
Gun owners don't usually talk about their guns, except perhaps to others in their gun club. I have known several, in fact just before the handgun ban came into force, I was a guest of a workmate at their gun club to use a couple of pistols for the last time.
@@grahvis You can have a gun licence for protection in the UK and you can obtain and carry a pistol in NI. The gun laws differ from one part of the UK to the other, there is not one set of rules.
@@georgebarnes8163 .
Only in very special circumstances can you own a firearm for personal protection. Personal protection does not appear in the list of 'good reasons' I quote.
1.6 Applicants should be able to demonstrate to the police that they require their firearm on a regular, legitimate basis for work, sport or leisure (including collections or research). Chief officers are able to exercise discretion over what constitutes a good reason, judging each case on its own merits.
The police in the UK are not normally armed. There are small armed units which deal with incidents involving arms, but that is exceptional and they do not patrol the streets.
Except for NI where all the police are armed 24/7 on and off duty.
Always makes me laugh when people think it rains here , it doesn’t we are not even in the top 20 countries in the world for rainfall.
There is a video where an American working in the UK, shows their drive home. He shows how due to roundabouts, until he had to turn right into his drive, at no time did he have to stop at a junction.
P's and Q's refers to PINTS and QUARTS. Minding one's P's and Q's originated in the pubs referring to one's behavior from how much one might drink.
What visitors have to realise is that London is not England. The rest of England bears no relationship to London. Beautiful, diverse, historical, tasty. And that’s just the people.
McDonalds... In the EU and the UK, you're not allowed to use "lean finely textured beef"/ (AKA "Pink Slime" - where heat and centrifuges remove the fat from the meat in beef trimmings and The resulting paste, without the fat, is exposed to ammonia gas or citric acid to kill bacteria.) - they have to use good quality ground beef - so McD's in Europe isWAY nicer than anything that you'd get in the US.
There’s over 2000 pubs just in London alone … a pub is someone’s local, so every town, village or even small arreas will have their i own local ….. major cities will have local pubs dependant upon that area
No such thing as a top 3 pub..
A single high street in London can accommodate around 5-8 pubs, along with kebab and chicken shops.
Best advice, go to pubs in the boroughs outside of central tourist London.
Go Shoreditch or Walthamstow, Hackney or Tottenham or Holloway, Islington Angel is a great spot for tourists wanting to explore a little more.
Also, if you ever do come to London England, get full English breakfast from ordinary everyday Cafés.. the older or grungier looking the better the food. Trust me.
And try out the chicken and chips takeaway shops.
"Which are the top 3 pubs..." the best pubs are independents, and most of them are. Avoid big chains. If you're going to a place, do a Google for best pubs.
if you come to the uk i hope you enjoy our country
Seeing your doctor and Hospital treatments are free, including any surgery. The costs are taken from our normal tax deductions and prescription is just £9.35 and free to low income and unemployed so no bother has to suffer if it.
International students get charged a little towards health care on their visa and it is only £470.00 a year.
Wolter is irritating and often out of date. If you want to see videos about the UK I'd suggest Rick Steves instead. He gives a little more depth and even speaks to the locals!
And he talks slower plus his videos and photos are newer
If you haven't seen it already watch a video by the 'Food Insider' about UK vs US food. The Mcdonalds' one will shock you about the fries.
that palace is the royal pavillion built by indian soliders and architects during ww1, big up brighton massive ahaha
I'm an old UK lady. Please check out these 2 YT vids - 'US vs UK McDonald's | Food Wars' and 'American Cops vs British Cops (Bobbies)'
Reaction suggestion - Difference Between The United Kingdom, Great Britain and England Explained, by CGP Grey
A lot of the reputation for bad food is because of rationing after ww2. Britain was extremely poor at the time and people used rations for food for decades. This heavily limited what people could eat/cook with for decades so a lot of our traditional family recipes were lost or were simply not as common. Thankfully our food is improving now rationing is over and we have access to more ingredients again. Traditional British food is similar to French food. As for the pubs, visit any historic pub in a small village or town for the authentic feel. Nothing beats that vibe here. They are the heart of the communities
To answer your question about gun crime in the UK Here's some stats on school shootings since 2009:-
Canada 2
France 2
Germany 1
Japan 0
Italy 0
UK 0
US 288.
That's what happens when you don't have gun culture. ✌️♥️🇬🇧
Roundabouts are safer than American intersections
That video is 4 years old so things have changed a bit still no guns but there is knife crime but it mostly tends to be gang related or as usual if you go looking for trouble in the wrong places you’ll find it 🤷🏽♂️ I’m black have lived here all my life am 3 rd generation Caribbean and I’ve not seen or suffered anything like that In my life. The police can be a bit funny at times but if you go to them with the right attitude your ok
Good Reaction Guys. It is going to be 85 Degrees for the next few days here in London. The weather can be incredible as you CAN have "All 4 Seasons in ONE day" lol
Once you get used to Roundabouts it is MUCH easier than the crazy French drivers. You simply give way (yield) to the drivers to the Right, who are already ON the Roundabout. When there are no cars on the Roundabout THEN you enter it and just b4 your chosen exit, you then signal Left.
England is the largest of the 4 joined Countries of BRITAIN( England, Scotland, Northern Ireland, and Wales). Ireland (Southern) is a different Country altogether. Good Luck :)
Wow thanks for the comment!!!
Northern Ireland is not part of Britain
@@georgebarnes8163 My disappointment in myself is immeasurable and no words can adequately express my remorse regarding my inexcusable faux pas. I am mortified that I got to make such a Schoolboy error and I only try to crave your forgiveness for my brief moment of total complete and utter insanity in making this mistake. I have no excuses and I can only apologize, profusely, for my stupidity, once again. George, you are a good man for pointing this out to me. I'm inconsolable at the moment.....:(
@@Isleofskye You are forgiven, 100 lines for you.
@@georgebarnes8163 You are more than kind George and I am not worthy of your solace, my friend..
Roundabouts are so simple you give way to anyone to the right it really is that simple something like 35% safer and 20% more efficient on traffic flow.
Driving on the left takes 30 minutes to master I have driven on the right in places around the world and it’s not a problem at all 35% of the world drive on the left side.
There are about 40000 pubs in England
Went online to check out canvas on survey said America was third in the world another one said America was 10th in the world the UK not mentioned Out of the top 50 countries
hi guys, just found your channel, working my way through your great videos, the round abouts, have been proven, to increase traffic flow as well as an 80% reduction in accident compared to your intersections
our country isnt perfect but i feel safe here
Soldier, automatically 👍
There are thousands of pubs here, most towns have 2 or 3
Look up cornwall england the beaches there the cotswolds devon dorset yorkshire the lake district etc beautiful 🙂
No one has a gun in England really, apart from farmers and stuff x
Gun death per 100k...
USA 10th at 12.21
UK 64th at 0.23
I recommend the pipers arms in Thurso, the green man in Froome and Ye Old Cock Tavern on Fleet Street. Generally best visited on the same day cos you'll get a freebie in the last one if youve had your card stamped or as we say - had yer 'at nailed on
you should watch about nhs and workers rights in the uk
Best pub ? In what city ,town ,village.? .
To answer your question and don't take offence. I think it's your second constitutional right but it's outdate. We do have guns and see police carrying them very often. Our police wear body cams and are strictly moderated and only deploy guns as a last resort. I used to to live in the US and the difference in training is incomparable. The US police would not get away with what they do here. I sat down in a restaurant once and cops were sat down eating dinner. THAT WOULD NEVER HAPPEN HERE. But to answer your question, our police are trained to take out a threat non-lethally (arm shot, disarm) and basically gather intelligence on why they did acted the way they did. Very rare to see cops shoot dead people here.
No gun violence here dude. Think there been two were I live in past 25years and if I'm not mistaken the two have been on farm. That I personally know off there been 1 gun death I personally in my 50 year life
Just to put you minds at rest, in case you visit here and decide to hire a car. You are NOT going to be shot dead for a routine traffic stop!
Like everywhere around the world due to global warming our weatehr has changed a lot especially over the last 20 or so years with longer hotter summers and more extreme winters. Gun violence in the UK is very rare and a shooting anywhere will make the national news. We do have a knife crime issue but its more in the cites and is more the younger population but generally there are less people killed in the whole of the Uk in one year than in Chicargo alone. I have included below a link to a video of the top ten places to visit in the UK while there are many more it gives you a taste of the sort of things there are to see.

Simply enjoy..,...... .fuck Mac's.....,.
Hey What are the top three bars in America ? Go on Shock me !
Gun violence is not really a thing here in the UK. To legally own a gun (many are banned) requires months of checks by police and doctors to get a license. You must have the gun in a locked gun safe and can't carry a gun without a very good reason.
You asked for top 3 pubs in London. Well it depends where in London you are? Central London is roughly 25 miles! Greater London covers close to 600 miles!
The concept of British food being bad originated during the war when American troops were stationed here. What they didn't allow for was the fact food was scarce and strictly rationed. People were just grateful for what they got. Obviously the Americans weren't. Its a shame their ignorance has persisted so long. Nowadays our food is much healthier than yours because we insist on fewer chemical additives and stricter animal husbandry. Every country in Europe does.
Really love your comment because of how true it is.
Our police don't carry guns as a rule, only for emergency situations, and there is lvery ittle gun violence. Guns here are strictly regulated Actually that isn't what Ps and Qs means but I'll let him off. All islands have very variable weather and the British Isles are islands. :) There is not a best pub, there are hundreds of them and they all vary.
britians nation dish is curry, we need some rain man hand watering all me plants, what you want is a pub that only sells drink only proper pub
I enjoyed your Birmingham career even if all the Girls on my first foreign holiday,Aged 18,in Lloret,Spain fancied you in 1972 rather than me:)
It does rain all the time that is a mess at the moment it is about 30° outside we do not have bad teeth either they might not be as straight as Americans teeth we don’t generally wear braces as much. But apparently our teeth are better than in America
Regular police dont carry guns , the public cant own a firearm without a licence
eat at macdonalds my options it shit go to a restaurant or pud just saying uk citizen
There's hardly any gun violence police don't carry guns and are very helpful with the tourists
You cannot name a top three British pubs, apart from the Wetherspoons chain genuine British pubs are mostly unique and there are thousands. DO NOT go to a Wetherspoons and think you have experienced a British pub.
Francs is not the same as the uk. The French all just go when ever they want to 😂😂
It only rains oñ gene,......
knives over here
You don't need to worry about police here
Only special police carry guns here most our polite and helpful unless you go out of your way to upset them .
This is his England video not uk…he says it often in the video..change your title✌️
Cops are neat...,...
The regular police do not carry guns.
not in England but they do in NI.
Less than 10% of UK Police carry guns…..those that do are specialists
As well as the Nuclear site police, harbour police, airport police and every single police officer in NI.
Handguns are illegal in England. Shotguns are more common for hunting and sport....(More people were shot by the police in New York last year than were shot in the whole of England for 4 decades.) Most of Europe doesn't have guns...the police do not carry guns and criminals find it very difficult to aquire them.
the police most certainly do carry guns in the UK.
@@georgebarnes8163 No they do not. In fact only certain police units are trained in fire-arms. The average policeman in the UK is not fire-arms trained and therefore does not carry a gun.
@@AutoAlligator incorrect, every single police officer in NI is armed 24/7 on and off duty regardless if they are beat police, traffic police, airport or harbour police.
@@georgebarnes8163 The NI police are a specially trained unit of the police and as such do not represent the Police force in the rest of the UK in that regard.
(There are currently less than 7000 police-officers in NI, part of the total UK police force of 123,000 officers, the overwhelming majority of whom are not fire-arms trained and do not carry guns.)
@@AutoAlligator There is closer to 10k officers in NI and none of the armed officers are a special unit as all are armed, taking in the UK as a whole 13% are armed officers.
Before you come do a little research first. Take a week or two (Obviously subject to your funds available) and go around the four nations. Scotland and Wales are very different to England but London is not truly England leaving London to go to York or Brighton you will see the real England the real history of the UK. Edinburgh is a Capital city but quite unlike London. Lots to see and do and the food is great.
Regular please do not carry guns only specialised police officers that takes years and years to train them. The public can have guns but only under strict regulations and not for self defence. Shooting birds dear Clay pigeons that is all they had to be in a special locked cabinet when you are not using them you have to get a license doctors certificates mental health checks local police checks.
UK gun crime is very low We don't carry guns
so guns are so restricted, its very much you have to go through alot of hoops before your abled to own lower class firearms and must be on private propety. or locked away.
Gun arnt really a thing over here. we do have them but the laws are heavy around them. Police here compared to America are "night and day" your lost, need help ask the police and they will help.
Nobody have guns police don't have
yes they do.
Perhaps you could try researching the cultural differences before making your comments. Junk food is bad in every location.There is a"good" pub in every locality, & no such thing as the best 3 pubs in the United Kingdom. That is purely subjective. Please go there before you make random commentary. Appreciate your video. Thank you !
