Depends what you think made Britain 'great'. I chose what other cultures admired about the Brits, not what they feared/hated.
I'd say colonialism made us more rich than great.

Re: Things that would make Britian "Great" Again.
At least then Britain was respected.Now we seem to the laughing stock of the world.
Even our own people don't trust our government or the myriad of top civil servants who only seem interested in lining there own pockets.
I'm not saying we must instil fear in everybody but how much fear does your average yob have of the law nowadays? I don't say bring "back the birch" but without some respect (maybe caused by fear of retribution) where are we ?
Britain was once a world power but now I feel we're more like world class wimps.

Any stupid pommy bastards criticizing Britain would be sent around the world to see what piss holes most other places are.
A new Benny Hill must be found and allowed to make shows without worrying about the dreaded political correctness monster.

Re: Things that would make Britian "Great" Again.
I just got a boxed set of Benny Hill Annuals and it's still good and certainly some of the things said would make the PC brigade cringe. Some of the things even made me do double take and I'm not very PC oriented.
