No, not another Brexit thread.
This time it's serious.

You Brits do have a few really awful habits best kept to yourselves, and trifle is one of them. Black pudding is another. Fried bread is worth a dishonorable mention. I never quite got the point of tepid beer; I ‘d take a cold Murphy’s over a warm bitter any day.
And, yes, I know that Murphy’s is Irish,

Originally posted by @ashiitakaOh yes, there are lovely bits, if you know where to look for them. A chelsea bun, still warm, from Fitzbillies, King’s Parade, Cambridge is peerless on a foggy morning.

Thats is terrible enough but at least bubble is a proper English delicacy. As an expat,it's all very sad watching the homeland going to wrack and ruin.
I visited my family in Northern Ireland last July, and everything was fine. London was fine too. In fact, the whole country seems really fine. The sky has not fallen in at all and most people who live there have moved on.
I don't want to debate you in the general forum. Just giving you my perception of it.

Bitter should be served at "cellar temperature". (about 12C)
Dark beers, stouts slightly warmer.
