Their conclusion, of course, gives the game away, for the tolerance they are talking about does not in fact exist but is invented as a justification for present intolerance. It is a thoroughly hypocritical posture which makes one wonder whether British claims to being especially tolerant have any validity at all.
What is called tolerance by the British may often be just unassertiveness or timidity, for it is true that most English people do not relish public rows or confrontations and will go to some lengths to avoid them. But this does not mean they are particularly indulgent to other people's behaviour. Do anything out of the ordinary--give a party, for example--and your neighbours will soon begin to bare their teeth.
The British tend to be very critical of Continental drivers, whom they accuse of uncontrolled aggressiveness. But while British drivers may be rather more reliable about sticking to the rules of the road, they are dangerously intolerant of other drivers who, in their view, are doing things they shouldn't be doing. I myself may sometimes be incompetent or a bit too pushy as a driver but I have often been a victim of verbal abuse and terrifying revenge manoeuvres quite out of proportion to any offence that I may have committed. In fact, I am much more frightened of British drivers than I am of French or Italian ones, for you can at least be reasonably confident with the latter that, unlike the British, they are not prepared to die--and take you with them--in order to prove a point.
British attitudes to bad habits like drinking also tend to be intolerant and are getting more so. I was shocked to hear on the radio this week that personnel officers, people whose task is to care for the workers, had revealed in a survey that many of them would like to see drinking at lunchtime forbidden and made grounds for dismissal. The whole idea of telling people when they should be allowed to drink, a principle enshrined in the licensing laws, is of its nature profoundly intolerant.
The writer cites the British people's attitude towards immigration as an example to show their ______.
