Why are British people stuck in the past ?

What’s going on in Northern Ireland is a prime example. Move it’s not the 1960s/70s it’s 2021 ffs seems like people have identity problems like the scots.

    I don't think the British are stuck in the past, they are up to date. It seems that it is the North Ireland Protestants/ Orange Order/ Prods who are stuck in the past. Passed by by history these guys clocks seemed to have stopped in the 1970's/80's (40-50 years ago) and is stuck there. 

    Now they have their kids (10-16) of 2021 throwing petrol bombs in busses their faces covered with balaclavas just like an old news reel from the 1970's..it's an incredible throw back/ anachronism....50 years/ a whole half century out of date.
