I suspect the majority of British will admit their version of English is trash

I don't know about that guy, but I used to have a speech impediment that meant I couldn't pronounce the letter R. I went to several speech therapists, so I started to annunciate every other letter, but that made people think I had a British accent. Anyway, I eventually learned how to say R, so now I have a speech impediment that makes me sound like a British person doing a fake American accent.
