Tell me of stereotypes.

British in general or English only, either is welcome.

Non-UK citizens/dwellers only, please.

And remind me, are we supposed to be stereotyped as more or less polite than Canadians?

I suspect that it might (to a certain degree) be a class thing - I was always taught that You Were Polite No Matter What; noblesse oblige et cetera.

You might have to have them killed tomorrow, but it simply wasn't the done thing to be rude to them.
