I disagree with Maggie Thatcher's comments that there is "no such thing as society", in that I believe we have many different societies, which obviously overlap with each other. Each of those may have a "culture", if you wish, but that doesn't mean that there is some definitive culture that can be described as British.
I am not refusing to accept a definition of British Culture, I just haven't really been given one that resembles anything that I recognise as Britain in 2006.
And if you can't truly say what it is, how can you say that we are losing it or that it is being threatened?
