I conducted two surveys, one in the English community and another in the French community, and the results are clear. I wonder what I was hoping for or expecting…but it's always interesting to see !

What's also very interesting is that in both camps (English and French), some people openly admitted to voting for another country to annoy the other.

Here are the overall results :

The English :

70.4 % chose France 🇫🇷
1.2 % chose Spain🇪🇸
8 % chose Scotland🏴󠁧󠁢󠁳󠁣󠁴󠁿
1.5 % chose Ireland🇮🇪
8.5 % chose the USA🇺🇸
10.2 % chose Germany🇩🇪

The French :

72.4 % chose England 🏴󠁧󠁢󠁥󠁮󠁧󠁿/🇬🇧
1.7 % chose Spain 🇪🇸
0.58 % chose Austria 🇦🇹
21.2 % chose Germany 🇩🇪
3.06 % chose Italy 🇮🇹
0.87 % chose the Netherlands 🇳🇱

Note that in another survey also conducted among the French community but with more votes :

85% of French people voted for England 🏴󠁧󠁢󠁥󠁮󠁧󠁿/🇬🇧
0.6% for Russians 🇷🇺
0.4% for Spanish 🇪🇸
9% for Germans 🇩🇪
0.9% for the USA 🇺🇸
and 1% for Algeria 🇩🇿

  1. No surprises there 😃

    I like the French 🇫🇷worked with them in Bosnia and found them to be very professional and helpful.

  2. I do wonder what the Scots would say – though nevertheless being from a border city I’ve never felt any emnity towards them or vice versa. Probably a quarter of Newcastle has a Scottish grandparent to be fair, I certainly do…
