Question

How come the people who are arrested for being drunk on an aircraft are always British?

Answer 1

No it is not always the British| but you are right it usually

"seems to be" because the British media so loves to highlight these kinds of incidents also highlighted in comparable news reporting e,g., I recall reading about British merchant seamen misbehaving ashore far more appallingly than any other seafarers due to alleged inability to hold their drink. Much publicised British football hooliganism throughout the 20th century was always drink related ? Trouble by British holidaymakers in Spanish or Greek holiday resorts also drink or drug related, and of course the British tabloids  continue to love to highlight any scandal that will outrage readers and UK

journalists are better tha others at exaggerating to make events appear more appalling, because that is what helps sell their newspapers.

Answer 2

Because we get away with it. Our courts don't properly punish these thugs but instead lets them off with some pathetic warning or probation so there is no deterent. If we started with hefty fines and jail sentences plus confiscation of passports then we'd see a reduction in this sort of behaviour.

Answer 3

Because british people are regarded as the easiest people to be drunk.Just try to count on how many pubs are in the UK.

Answer 4

We export a lot of dipsomaniacs.

Answer 5

They're not.

Answer 6

cos the brits are well known p*ssheads !!!!

Answer 7

because the British cant compose them self's for a couple of hours

Answer 8

Because the British media do not report when other nations nationals get arrested - why would any one here be bothered if a German was arrested on a German air plane for being a nuisance?

Answer 9

because newspapers don't comment on what the other contries are doing, i was in the airport when the woman from kos were there (the ones that tried to open the doors) and they were acting like complete prats then, but no one said anything to them.

Answer 10

To be honest im British, and i pretty much agree with you!!
