Drunk people and our love of ‘beans on bread’… Americans reveal what they REALLY hate about Britain

People from across the pond living in the UK don't hold back on what frustrates them in this funny video

SO much for our 'special relationship'.

Americans living in the UK have let rip on what baffles them about our country - and they dared have a go at our sacred beans on toast.

In a (quite amusing) video posted by currency website Transferwise.com, people from the US who currently live in London discuss what baffles them about British life.

Drunk people on public transport, urban foxes crying at night and Marmite were high of the list of their biggest bugbears.

As well as the meaty spread, Americans slagged off 'beans on bread', branding it 'laziness', before laying in to Cornish pasties.

She exclaimed: "I just don't know how y'all can't have better food." Outrageous.

To be fair, they've got a point about the foxes.

He explained: "There's an area by Canary Wharf - when I first pronounced it as 'quay' - Q.U.A.Y, I don't know how that became a 'key'."
