1. | Brave try, but the comma between 'Abuse' and 'if' is undesirable in the case of an imperative anagrind; 'Ragging…'? | 2. | Clever, though it seems to me that using B for Brit is stretching things | 3. | Indirect anagram but worth points as 'if French' could really only be 'SI' and it works well. | 4. | 'Brit' cannot be abbreviated to B, only British or Britain can | 5. | This is an example of an indirect anagram (if French = SI), which solvers tend not to like. | 6. | … but not B as BRIT! | 7. | Not keen on the indirect anagram. |
