for such a vaunted empire, britain has a pitifully small number of world heritage sites..

wonder why..

is britain's native culture that far below the level of world relevance? why is britain so lacking in terms of a world cultural footprint?

how does a nation like england suggest an iron bridge as a world heritage-worthy site? is this the best britain can do?

poor, sad, culturally barren uk just can't compete with the true cultural powerhouses of europe: italy, spain, france and germany....

which is why british 'national' museums are filled with stolen art from elsewhere in europe.. 'odd,' no? LOL

britannia's motto: if you can't produce it or create it, just steal it! 😂

sad but true <gasp>
