We all have opinions, but it seems to have become a British pastime to opine on just about any subject. (Of course, the other British pastime is obsessing about the private lives of 'celebrities'.)
It is almost always a negative opinion. When's the last time you heard someone say, "I think that basically the government is doing a good job"?
Also I've noticed that the opiner will only opine to the converted. You will never hear an opiner say, "I think the monarchy should be abolished" to a group of royal buffs.
Whatever else we run short of there will always be an inexhaustible supply of opinions.
