Brit getting offended at being though australian?

So British people would you get upset if someone assumed you were Australian? If so, why? This guys wife got mad cause I thought her husband was Australian. Excuse me there's like 50 different dialects and I'm no expert. He sounded like a low class criminal Brit:)

    that's what Australians basically are anyway, descendants of British convicts.

      That is so old hat and inaccurate: some of us are but some are descendants of the original inhabitants and others are descendants of migrants from all over the world

    I believe the correct term for the guy's wife is "whinging POME" (Prisoner of Mother England).

    if you can't tell the difference between a British accent, or Australian accentthen you need to go back to school.

    • Sorry:( Maybe that sounded bad. I mean he sounded to me like a guy from docklands .Not necessarily a criminal.

    Yes it's normal. I have lived part of my life in Australia and sometimes go there for conferences. 90% of the people there are low class criminal Brits with cockney accents.
