I think the generalisation of the accent from Britain, being British, is a little off. The England accent is soooo varied, take the London accent and the Newcastle accent. They are miles apart.
And don't forget you also have Wales Northern Ireland and Scotland in Britain aswell. And all them are really varied, some of which are FAR from posh or good to listen too!
Anyways, I enjoy raiding with my fellow Brits also, it's nice to be understood.
:D
Edit: this isn't aimed at the maker off the post. More those commenting that it sounds posh.

Being a Londoner that moved to Newcastle, I can back this 100%. Geordies accents are nuts, it's the best.
-
All british accents are great. Go britain!
-
Even some cities have different accents. Think about how different liam gallaghers accent is to, say, peter kays
-
But Peter Kay is not from Manchester like Liam Gallagher, is he?? I thought he was more Bolton.

Greater manchester! ;)

Not true. Middle-class Glasgow sounds hella posh.

Oi, don't forget us Northern Irish!

That's uk mate, Northern Ireland isn't a part of Britain. But given my hometown is Dumfries and I always frequent Stranraer, I have a lot of love for Northern Ireland! And yea there is some right posh ones out there, the accent from morning side, Edinburgh is insanely posh. Not even a hint of Scottish at times.

I know it's 'Great Britain and Northern Ireland' - but part of the Good Friday agreement states that someone from here has legitimate claim to be considered British or Irish. I can hold a British passport etc. And likewise for you Scottish, I've been through Stranraer a fair few times myself! :)

Aye? I honestly never knew that. Well I stand corrected good sir! Haha. *hangs head in shame*
-
Haha not a bother - not a common topic of conversation in other counties, I'm sure!
-
No i reckon it's not. Do you know if you type in Google" is Scotland " this first suggestion is "is Scotland a country?" 😔

That's uk mate, Northern irelNd isn't a part of Britain. But given my hometown is dumfries and I always frequent Stranraer, I have a lot of love for Northern Ireland!

It's definitely the same with Americans. We have so many different accents.

Yea I have a lot of raid friends from all over. The southern accents are great. Always make me hungry for comfort food though!
