Of course, I'm English, and sadly the words 'chav' and 'knife-crime' may slip their way in as well.

Actually, knife crime's at an all time low in twenty years, but the papers wouln't want you believing that now, would they?

Besides that, the victims of most knife crime are other teenages not older people, so I don't really see why 50 somethings are scared about it.

Actually my professor showed us how these things are both up and down at the same time. The AMOUNT of crime is growing in most Western countries. While the PERCENTAGE of crime is going down.

Example: there is a room with ten people in it and nine of them are murderers. In another room there are 100 people with 14 murderers. Which room would you feel safer in? The one with, technically, more murderers.

in english lingo: Football (soccer! haha) hooligans.

It is football, not soccer,
Football is an ENGLISH game invented by ENGLISH people in 19th century ENGLAND. Seeing as it is an ENGLISH game and you are using our ENGLISH language, it is actually you who is wrong for calling it soccer instead of its proper name, given to it by an ENGLISH man. What you call football is just a cheap rip-off of another great ENGLISH game known as rugby.

GOD SAVE THE QUEEN

Mispelled Differently spelled words.

Read my above statement, Seeing as it's the ENGLISH language and they are ENGLISH words, then it is in fact the Americans misspelling them because they're too lazy to add a u. If you have a problem with how we ENGLISH spell stuff with OUR language, you're free to invent your own and stop abusing ours. And the suffix is "-ise", not "-ize"

10:Witch hunters
9:Badger song
8:Captain Britain
7:Anglo Saxon
6:The Docter
5sylocke
4avid Beckham
3:Queen
2:Crusaders
1oms

Nonsense! You admit with "humorous" that those "u"s are superfluous.

Actually both are correct as both of our current spellings have strayed from the original English spelling of most things.

I'd still go with how we English spell stuff, claim by name and that.
