That's a rather sweeping (and as far as I can tell untrue) statement.
With the exception of readers of the Daily Mail (a horrible
hate-riddled tabloid), most British people (in my experience as a
native) have pretty much a live and let live attitude in my
experience.
You won't see me storming off in a huff, but I do do a fair bit of
ignoring (although in this case my British reserve didn't win out...).
