14 British Memes: Pretty Dank, Innit?
The United Kingdom is made of four nations situated on islands north of Europe. Those four nations, in addition to creating and/or conquering several other nations around the world, have made a great many memes. You might already know about the British passion for tea, football, royalty and sprawling overseas empire, and maybe you wish to learn more.
If you want to access the deeper level of the culture and understand what it’s really like to be British, then these memes won’t do it. But they’re a good start. Here, you’ll find 14 information about how bonafide British posters on r/britishmemes feel about topics from the much-beloved NHS to the less-beloved Boris Johnson, from the Queen to the metric system, along with some quality burns on the other big English-speaking nation across the pond.
