“The word for Englishmen is BRITISHER.”
Yeah, maybe in India, or the 1950s....
If you use ‘yank” as a term of abuse, or get it used against you, then yes it is an offensive word, like “honky” or “infidel” or “whitey”
well, no, a Britisher is anyone from the British Isles. but don’t call a Scotsman English or you’ll never hear the end of it......
Don’t forget the Germans, they used it also.
But I will continue its use.
And considering the statements of Mr. Milbank today, coming into save the Pakis arse, of course the Britishers would, the pus filled deformed state of Pakistan is their little creation, unfortunately not aborted or stillborn.
But, we can hope that the Paki teenager takes the car keys and runs Pakistan into a brick wall.
Britishers, still perfidious after all these years.
But Britishers like the Python troupe and the Stones make up for all that ;>>
