liam_s1 Posted November 2, 2006 Share Posted November 2, 2006 Is being a good citizen the same as being British? Yeah alright I will admit that I am working towards an assignment with this thread but I chose this assignment as it interests me and I am really looking forward to reading what people have to post...

Sultana Posted November 2, 2006 Share Posted November 2, 2006 It's not the same really, you can be a citizen of any country, but it does not mean you are a good citizen. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

jfish1936 Posted November 3, 2006 Share Posted November 3, 2006 Maybe Mahatma Gandhi was a good citizen, in that he sought to help others. But I don't think the British governers of India saw him that way. Maybe the question needs more definition; e.g. a good citizen of ..where? UK, Australia, France, Sierra Leone.......etc. Because being British is sure not going to make you a good citizen of Japan! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
JoeP Posted November 3, 2006 Share Posted November 3, 2006 As has been pointed out, it's a poorly phrased premise. But assuming we're talking citizen of Britain, not at all. Harold Shipman was British but hardly a good citizen. fred West - British but a bad 'un. There is no correlation. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
