It’s my opinion. I would not be allowed to defend myself in the UK. My opinion is not a myth.

I know how and under what circumstances I would defend myself from a criminal at home, and I know that I cannot do so in the UK.

I am telling you the facts.

Self defence, despite the myth in America, is perfectly legal and allowed in the UK. This idea that it is illegal in the UK to defend yourself is complete rubbish. It has never been illegal, the right has never been taken away. In fact, the laws of UK self-defence have been strengthened.
I am a gun owner and its also legal for me to use my gun if necessary to defend myself.

I am British. I live here. I was in 2008 the victim of crime and had to use self defence. So I know what I am talking about, and I am TELLING you the facts and I am telling you you are wrong.
