I’ve been noticing a lot of negative threads about the UK.

Is it “bash UK week”? LOL

Is there anything good coming out of the UK? Can someone please post some? LOL

Well, lots of good people are fed up and leaving the UK. Does that count? ;-)

Can’t think of much at the moment...

Oh, wait I can. The liberal democrat leadership race - the two candidates made complete idiots of themselves over the weekend.

Probably just a week with bad news in the Brit papers, and there is usually plenty of it. They have a subprime implosion also, for example. In today's Daily Mail we see:

"Desperate first time buyers take on third job to afford home"

"Brown to outline tougher rules to cut carbon emissions"

"Youngsters having treatment for drug abuse up by a fifth"

Stilton. :-)

Seriously, there is frequent optimistic news about Exciting Medical Discoveries, but I always suspect these are for domestic consumption, to give the NHS sufferers hope.

Yanks are basically Anglophiles, but it seems every day is "Bash America" in certain segments of their Press. There is plenty of bad news everwhere to go around.
