You might be getting a bit of an unbalanced view of the feelings of the country as a whole Gingersnapchap Although some posters on Gransnet feel very strongly indeed. Most of the rest of us Brits are not really invested enough to be bothered one way or the other.
I’m sure there are plenty of people unbothered by the goings on of the rich and famous. I don’t mean to give the impression that I view Gransnet posters as a representation of Brits in general. The internet is a place where the most extreme views will always be highlighted. Meanwhile in the real world, life is going about as usual. My husband manages a team that is partially based in London. He works remotely, so I hear him ask about current events on the other side of the pond. His UK based workers don’t seem remotely bothered by half of what I read on the net. That’s life! Lol
