Culture No.2

What is it to be British?

"In this multicultural society, we now have the trouble of deciphering what it is to be British. Unlike pre-world war days when society in Britain was generally made up of hierarchical class systems, the many different communities across the nation can stretch to both ends of the spectrum. It has now become a case that so many foreign ideas and values have infiltrated into areas of society that governing such a country becomes incredibly difficult if one aims to please everyone. Generally the majority vote will decipher the laws across the land, but these are not always in accordance to an individuals personal preferences or beliefs. It raises the question as to where the boundaries lie between our traditional British society and that of other countries"
