I love the way Brits can coil syllables together like a snake.

Consider this paragraph from a recent story on Brexit:

He said that at no stage, despite all her frustrations with the EU and her many battles (which she won!) did Thatcher ever want to leave the EU. Unfortunately, her soi-disant Eurosceptic disciples misunderstood or misrepresented her opposition to the centripetal tendencies of the EU.

From the article, “With Brexit, the UK has achieved the gold standard of self-harm” by William Keegan.
