Do you know why Americans celebrate on the 4th of July? 📜 On this day in 1776, a Declaration of Independence from King George III of Great Britain by the Continental Congress was adopted in Philadelphia. This eventually led to 13 American colonies separating from Great Britain, following the American Revolution. 🎉 Today the 4th of July is a federal holiday in the United States. Every year, fireworks, parades, concerts, barbecues 🍔, and patriotic family gatherings occur across the country to celebrate the independence of the United States of America.

📆 Did you know that on this day in 1829 the iconic London Metropolitan Police force (the 'Bobbies') came into being? 🇬🇧 Also known as 'Peelers', 'Bobbies' exist thanks to Robert Peel, the U.K. Home Secretary at the time, who helped pass the 'The Metropolitan Police Act'. 📃 The purpose of the new police force was crime prevention, with the close cooperation of the citizens of London. By the 1860s 'Bobbies' were wearing their distinct 'custodian' helmets. The nicknames 'Bobbies' and 'Peelers' are derived from Peel's first and last names. Aside from 'Bobby', and 'Peeler', there are many uniquely English slang words associated with the London police. 🚓 For example a 'Jam Sandwich' 🥪 or 'Candy Car' 🍬 are other ways to call a police car (named after the colour schemes of police cars). 'Old Bill' or 'Bill' are London terms used to refer to police officers, inspired by the U.K. television police series 'The Bill'. 📺 🇬🇧 Do you have any favourite London or U.K. slang words? 💂 Share below. 👇
