Right since clearly none of you know how to do this properly....

1. Not so subtle semi-nudity. Page 3 of The Sun ran for 45 years !
2. Beer production. There are 1472 breweries and micro-breweries in the UK today !
3. The National Health Service. Free at the point of use and has been for 72 years
4. Safety. No country has as many health and safety regulations as Britain and few have legal requirement that they be inspected annually.
5. Police. Yes we have our occasional problem with the odd bad egg in a uniform. And the charge of 'institutionalized racism' rears it's ugly head every so often. But generally speaking the good old British 'Bobby' doesn't go around shooting 'perps' because they're scared to death.
6. Food. It's not all jellied eels; Pie and mash; Lancashire Hotpot and fish and chips.
Food varies greatly all over and isn't restricted to meat and two veg. anymore.
7.Football. (That's the game with a round ball. Kicked up and down the park ? Goal at each end ??) Watched by half the planet on a weekly basis. (pity it's so bloody expensive most folk can't afford to go and watch anymore !)
8. Royal Family. History shows that English royalty has had some incredible figureheads throughout it's 1093 year history.
Some of it dividing a nation and even causing the odd military skirmish here and there.
But it endures to this day and is much revered by many all over the world.
Despite the infamy of many a politician or government of the day, the royal family has endured it all.
9. Geography. Flat plains; woodland; coastal regions; built up cities; small Hamlets; Mountains; national parks with miles of green space all accessible to the general public.
10. Freedom to roam. You might get stopped on the odd occasion if you're found loitering. But generally speaking you can come and go at any hour of the day or night, go for a walk or a drive and can do so without fear of arrest.

@SW-User Lol. We all knock our 'homeland'. It's a Brit. thing !
But we do have some amazing things here. Had some fabulous creators and inventors who have given the world imagination and inspiration. Elgar included !

@Picklebobble2 I remember a conversation with a friend of mine about guitarists. He lit slash as his favourite American guitarist.... Ermmmm Saul Hudson as he is monikered on his passport has always travelled on... A UK passport.
