democracy the rule of law individual liberty mutual respect for and tolerance of those with different faiths and beliefs, and for those without faith.

I lived in Britain for a decade.
Amazingly, in my experience not a single one of those things is true in practice.
British values are almost all of them related with “keeping up appearences” (hence the whole “stiff upper lip” thing), the inherent superiority of Britain and Britons and how “people should know their place”.
