'British people are spoilt - they don't know how lucky they are. I keep telling
the Americans, because of all their laws and restrictions: you're an uncivilised
country. I don't think the British have any style at all - that's part of
their charm.
I mean, take the Olympics. Did you see our team come out with their bloody
shorts and fucking bush hats? I was ashamed - the Australians were better
dressed. Even some of the poorest countries in the world had long trousers.
Being an Englishman, when you go abroad, you get respect instantly. They
love to see the British making fools of themselves - fat bloody Gazzas and
Princess Dis. When I go abroad to perform, I have to accommodate for that.
Foreigners will always stick up for British people. And you know what? It's
an abuse of trust."
