Do the British have any hurt feelings when the US celebrates Independence Day from (uh) Britain?

I think they view us as a bratty little brother.

I think when the British burnt the White House down several times that they became even with the Americans.

We don’t care!

Read “The Apple Cart” by Shaw wherein America tries to come home and Britain says, “No thanks.”

I’d vote for the Queen Mother to rule this country again!

Hell George III would be bargain right now.

The book to read Is March to Folly by Barbara Tuchman. She argues how simple it could have been for GB to retain the colonies and illustrates the foolish decisions that led to separation.
Great historian BTW

I don’t care if their po-wittle feelings are hurt or not. They got their asses kicked and they need to get over it.

Most of them could care less. In fact that was as true at the time as it is today. And it is indeed lucky for us that Britain regarded us as unworthy of the effort required to exterminate the upstart colonies.

No one cares.

I suspect most Brits don’t even know about the war, or that it had colonies in North America.

Brits are pretty ignorant of Britain’s colonial history, since it isn’t really taught at school, and would be an utter embarassment to nationalists if it were: it would necessarily show Britain as one of the most sadistic colonial regimes in human history.

Harry Potter, The Beatles, David Bowie, Queen, WWII, Pink Floyd… I think we spent enough USD to get them over it.
We even took their naughty little Prince off their hands. (Too soon?)
