The above I would say was a cultural difference. Being a Brit we can be overly direct with opinions, a fellow Brit might not take offence because he/she would be used to the tone, whereas somebody from elsewhere may take offence to certain words or phrases.
Even though I don`t agree with a lot of what you say, you`ve still expressed your opinion in a constructive way (albeit around the mulberry bush type way) but thats what forums are largely for anyway.
