What do the Brits think of the Netherlands?

Online, like Facebook and Youtube, regarding the EU or other European things I saw alot of British comments basically saying they dislike the EU or even the continent at times, but us Dutch are "okay"
When I was in England last year I spoke with alot of regular Brits saying they dislike continental Europeans, but "the Cloggies are alright".
Why is this? or are my personal experiences an exaggeration?

I can't really explain it, but Dutch people feel very similar to us, just much more direct, but otherwise the same, down to the sense of humour, and politics,
I don't get that 'feeling' with other Continentals, maybe France has a similar sense of humour, but they are far too foreign

I have no strong feelings about them (most brits don't) but I feel like they must be closely related to us because they look so similar

I love you

Hmm yeah most of them said something like that too when I asked them about it
According to the map England has more in common (Y -DNA wise) with Belgium than the rest of the isles, what the fuck?

Clog wogs are very similar to us apart from being taller

I love you too

Why do u love us?

yes i love holland can you gay marry me and give me citizenship?

Only when u call it 'The Netherlands' instead of Holland

We're really quite similar I think. Even walking round the posh old bits of London sometimes, I think 'wow this looks Dutch'

Seafaring nation, colonial history, plain food, Mercantile, a mix of the 'Latin' and 'Germanic' worlds, similar language - theres a lot that conspires to make us similar

Dutch are unfunny bland normalfags though and I don't view Brits as direct at all. Unless you mean the stereotypical drunk working class.

Not him but by saying 'you're more direct' he was implying that we're not direct at all

I never took much opinion nor notice of The Netherlands until I met Dutch people.
You're all OK, just a tad queer in how you act.
Also the people I spoke to came across mildly autistic.

Isn't the Dutch opinion they hate the British lads that go to Holland for weed and hookers?

i changed my mind. Now I don't

my favourite country :)

Ah right I misread

I went to Flanders and it was just like England but nicer, i suppose they are not really dutch though

The people that come just for the weed and hookers are mostly the tourists who cause problems or are a general nuisance,
Can be Brit or any other nationality

>just like England but nicer
i was get that impression in holland desu
feels familiar but slightly better

>why do a bunch of Anglophone seafaring people with terrible food like another group of Anglophone seafaring people with terrible food?

I always got the impression it was mostly Brits from the Dutchies I spoke to (probably because of the 'lad' culture too).
I've never been, but I would like to visit some museums on Dutch artists.

>Has hamburgers as their national food.

We have a strong lad culture too, but maybe youre right about that one,
About the museums, this page is quite correct

if they had had stayed like this then we never would have voted for brexit

It was Britain that was pushing for the expansion though.

Government was, people weren't
That's how we got in this mess today
Purely being on an island made us more disconnected from the EU in a social sense.
