Britain is very similar to the United States.

One major difference is that cars and buses come from an unexpected direction and at high speed since about half of British drivers apparently think they are race car drivers.

English housing is California class expensive.

Basically, it's damp, green, with cities overrun with the detritus of Empire. Overall the country is poorly managed with (the Motorways excepted) an aging, and compared with France and Germany, fairly decrepit infrastructure. Political Correctness and irrational kowtowing to racial minorities and their criminal elements is far more rampant than here. But overall, there's still something about the place that feels culturally like "home".

Royalty? They keep their noses out of politics and are just fantastically well subsidized symbols of the British nation state. But considering what the philosophical kin of Corbin and the radicals in Labour did to Cousin Nicolae and his family in Russia - 1917/18, and that today's Left would like to repeat, they probably quietly root for the Tories.

Britain has no 1st amendment-like protections for speech. There are strong libel laws against saying things deemed to be offensive.

I’ve never been to England

And I've never been to Spain.
