English government: "we have revoked all your rights and outlawed tea"

English people: "oh bother, guess I'll just watch football"

French government: "we are levying a .0053% tax on stinky cheese"

French people: "we are on our way to the capitol with rocket launchers and we will light on fire every speed camera we encounter on our way"

The french have really nailed protesting, see the BBQ adapted to be rolled along tram tracks to ensure you can stave off hunger mid protest: https://www.reddit.com/r/nextfuckinglevel/comments/tjmw8s/fr...


Rights whatever, but they'd never get away with outlawing tea.


Ok, that is first thing for me to want to be tourist into UK :)
