Britain can be a bit strange!

I'm British, but never heard of most of these!

The meek shall inherit the Earth, the rest of us will fly to the stars.

Never underestimate the power of very stupid people in large groups

Arguing with an engineer is like wrestling with a pig in mud ..... after a while you realise that the pig likes it!

It's best never to mention Morris Dancing. Morris Dancing to us Brits is like Trump to you Americans.... An embarrassment.

Was their mayor. They went back to the council system in 2013. Also, he was forbidden from wearing the monkey suit once he won the election.
