We also pretty much invented science (Isaac Newton, Charles Darwin, Stephen Hawkins etc.) as well as literature (Shakespeare, Dickens, Rowling) not to mention the internet, time (i.e. GMT the base from which all timezones are established), imperialism (a concept the USA seems to be relishing all too much lately), most modern sports including 'baseball' and the flushing toilet so you're welcome I guess.

Thanks for led zeppelin, the beatles, iron maiden, and the first four Muse albums. NOT thanks for Thatcher, still having a monarchy, not burning your aristocrats alive in the streets of london, your loving horrifying food.

You can get great tacos/general mexican food if you look hard enough in one of the bigger cities, the main issues is it's SO loving EXPENSIVE to eat out in the UK compared to just about anywhere else outside europe. What I'd pay for a authentic chinese meal in Aus won't even buy a starter in a lovely back-alley takeaway here. Noone else can do chips like the brits though. We're potato-pros. What you can't find is decent japanese food here outside of super-pricey restaurants.

This is why we have the right to call chips whatever we want (that and that we invented the English language the clue is in the name).

Yeah no one should ever go to York if they actually need to get anything done. God help us all if the vikings are out at Jorvik, no one's going anywhere.

This isn't just through colonization but also things like indentured servitude which saw huge numbers of europeans flocking over here until the crown banned it.

And New York was called New Amsterdam.
