I don't understand that attitude at all. And yet you get people saying "In Europe..." meaning not-Britain. I reply, "this *is *Europe," but it doesn't necessarily go down well.

Is there a shorthand for 'I didn't.' Because I didn't. Always been pro-Europe and voted Remain. Please don't assume everyone is the same.
English could be mostly a written language for many people - they read it rather than hearing or speaking it. So changing the spelling, if that is true, would be just the wrong thing to do.
There isn't enough anger in Britain either from what I can see about people being disenfranchised on the basis of a minority vote (37% of the voting population). Maybe in Scotland there is, but here in southern England it seems nobody is flying the European flag whether literally or metaphorically.
