  • ‘I’m British. Island mentality innit.’ A bailiff clears out the house of an unsuspecting couple, but is angered by their surprise. Why should he care - British values have always put individualism at the cost of everything else haven’t they?

    The irony of The Guardian showing an anti-capitalist video...which is punctuated with commercials!
    I guess its not TOO surprising, given that they keep over £300m in tax-avoiding offshore-accounts in the Cayman Islands...

    I was actually enjoying this series until the British episode. Typical of the Guardian that in the whole series they make the guy with the British identity and supposed British morality to be the most unlikable and unpalatable of all. Even the others in the series that are anti-EU are more relatable, more sincere, more honorable in their point of view. Of course, with the British episode it's just narrow-mindedness and racism of British identity! It's the same leftist self-hate from the Guardian. It was also the most abstract story of the series with the least direct relation to the EU debate.

      I saw something completely different: somebody who was sold the idea that it's 'just the island mentality' to do what 'must be done' even if it comes at a big cost to others, to only look after their own because everyone else also only looks after their own, to believe that a monetary benefit outweighs concerns about compassion. And to accept hypocrisy as something that simply is.
      In the end, he admits that this idea isn't as rock solid as he was made to believe. Yet he carries on, because everyone else does so, too.
