I do not go off onto a tangent about Mexicans cos that is not my point, BRITON and the BRITISH includes four different countries - each contaning many various accents. The term you were looking for is ENGLISH accent. My point is America or North America contains lots of different races when someone says they have an American accent what does that mean? Going off about Mexicans is a dumb retort - and kind of my point...dont American understamd sarcasm at all?  This is kinda my point about the article and my statment to show that it is deemed by AMERICANA that BRITISH either have a posh accent or a cockney accent and thats it – both of these are considered English – not British – Saying someone has a British accent is like saying every living thing of earth is an  EARTHLING which of course they are..doegs cats fish beetles Sarah Palin etc…tho we as humans woulkd consider humans to be earthlings.
