Apparently the UK government has decided the country needs a motto. Like "In God We Trust"

Any suggestions? sensible or otherwise?
I think a motto with a double entendre or a good pun would be just the thing.
FUCK US BEFORE WE FUCK YOU
"Don't worry- I'll put the kettle on" D
"lager and lime"
"mustn't grumble"
I was thinking of
"Two pints of lager and a packet of crisps, please"
It's all part of the holiday )
Reviewing the 1000 or so entires on the BBC website, it did occur to me that the British probably don't need a motto. The wonderfully self deprecating humour seems quite suffient.
I doubt many Americans could address their national identity with such wit ( insert sarcasm, irony or cynicism as preferred).
"may contain nuts" seemed highly appropriate.
I know it hurts a bit but everybody's doing it, honest.

I LOVE that! :lol:
Manc's Mustn't grumble would have been my first choice, my second is one I've heard so many times from friends back home and when I first heard it I was shocked, now they have gun crime it's going down.
Fuck off and die.
Not very nice, but on a lot of lips. ( it's the ' and die' bit I find offensive)

In that vein"
"Go outside and play with the traffic"
and one from a barman I once knew, and that seems appropriate for the stream of anti-immigrant invective that seems ot be emerging from the UK:
"Pick a window. You're leaving"
Britain It's a game of two halves.
Britain Note the Tea in the middle
Britain Not a cleaning product
Britain Home of mad cow disease
Britain How High, Mr. President?
Britain We're not all English
Britain It's near London
Britain Harry Potter?
Britain Green is our country
Britain Green is our country (especially on a Saturday morning)
Britain Are you being served?
Britain One Nation, Many Cultures
Britain Pull Our Finger
Britain We all like vindaloo
Britain What?
