It do not matter where people come from, as it seems that no matter where people are or where they come from, there will be all types of people that will moan, no matter what.

I am English and I know lots of people over here life to complain as much as possible. The weather they say is too hot or too cold. It can be horrible and windy they mention or nasty and rainy. In Australia British people are known as the winging poms. I told them that I am the English Traveler.

chelseafan not all B ritish p eople just some. do not stereo type lik that as its wrong and unfair. I am an American and I hear this crap all Americans are noisy vulgar travelers and thats another untruth. You just happen to be stuck with people around you who like to complain.some British people are non complainers and some are just like any other group of people.

I think a lot of Brits complain (especially those who are older) because it's a very negative (attitude-wise) and rubbish country, on a social level, to live in these days. Everyone seems to have blinked and lost the plot, yet equally seem unable to want to change things for the better. I think apathy has always been a trait in modern-day Britain whereby people complain and complain and complain yet they seem to want other people to take responsibility for changes and don't seem prepared to take their lives singly and collectively into their own hands.

Ah the Americans are no different. Anything that doesn't go exactly how they want, they whine and cry and complain and moan. Same thing.

Its not fair to rope in a all British people as complainers... Cause you don't know all British people... BUT with that being said, I'm a New Yorker, who married British and I'm sorry he is the BIGGEST complainer ever and so are all his friends from the UK. I swear they have nothing else to talk about.

Lots of people complain not just british people. There will always be something for people to complain about. It is not possible to make everyone happy.
