Oh no, that's nonsense.

Our laws are based on the Protestant interpretation of morality - it's only in the last two centuries that Catholics and Jews have become full citizens.

Modern Britain is a product of Queen Victoria's government, who re-wrote history to give us a myth we were always like this.

Hell, 350 year ago we were basically a theocratic "Republic" much like modern Iran.
