It’d be nice if it’s respected.
I spent a good number of years in Britain from nursery to A levels at boarding school. I perfectly well understand "British" culture/etiquette and it is not monolithic and certainly not the same for everyone. So if one American customer puts their feet up on the sofa in the Concorde Room creating an awkward gosh golly old chap very sorry it's just not done horror moment well so be it. No one can change that!
