FANTASY ISLAND

 


What's British about UK's Coat Of Arms?
Not very much, it appears.

The lion is from Africa.
The unicorn is a fantasy creature and doesn't exist.
The wording isn't in English.
And the crown jewels are studded with gems sourced from elsewhere in the world.

So that just leaves...
The belt around the shield, which is a real shoddy bit of work as it doesn't have a beginning & end that connects properly.
There's a chain attached to a collar, but that usually represents slavery or being controlled.

Finally, we're taught as kids that it's rude to stick our tongues out at people.
Seems like word didn't get out to the establishment..!!
