dipso fatso bingo asbo tesco

i much dislike the wannabe-highbrow times online and their murdoch-inspired tabloid style (the sun is their sister paper). but once in a while they have a good article. like this one, a list of five words to describe the brits, by the brits themselves. gordon brown wants to use them as a motto on british passports etc, all part of his british identity initiative.

my suggestion, a bit obvious: *2 world wars and 1 world cup* (and that's all you'll ever win!)
