British problems never seem to go away. From over apologising to complaining when it’s hot and then complaining when it’s cold, to every conceivable problem with making and drinking tea, there is a very specific set of British problems people have to contend with, and now the 5p plastic bag charge can be added to the list.
But issues arising from tea appear to be the ones that irk Brits the most. Whether it’s making tea and forgetting about it, making tea and spilling it, experiencing the feeling of loss or irritation when a dunked biscuit gets too soggy and falls into a cup of tea, or the ruckus that can be caused by a broken kettle – tea is at the centre of many a British person’s problems, and people have been tweeting about it in abundance.
