Well Mrs. Ivan, it does appear that British culture is in
a free-fall.

Every weekend, I see hoards of young British guys coming
to Bratislava and making complete asses of themselves.
Then I read the news and notice that political correctness
in the UK is also running amok, just as it is in the US.

May God save the queen AND England.

Not really, there is a lot of stupidity, but we haven't yet reached free-fall.

British holidaymakers abroad have long been a scourge on the countries they favour. Young British guys are possibly the worst sort of drunken lout on the planet. That said, they are only one part of British society, and by no means the majority.

Then I read the news and notice that political correctness in the UK is also running amok, just as it is in the US.

Despite what this article implies, we're not quite that far gone - yet. Much of what is considered PC is too far removed from common sense for us to take seriously.

Thank you. :)

I am going to shut up now. This response seems to have turned me into Mrs McRantypants.
