This is from a quiz on TalkSPORT.
Questioner: In six nations rugby, what is the traditional emblem of the French team?
Contestant: An onion.

It sounds like the contestant is ready to appear on The Weakest Link.

Why is the OP entitled Dumb Britain ?

Because I got the quote from Private Eye which always has a little box of such snippets (indeed including many from The Weakest Link) and headed: Dumb Britain. To be truthful, reading some of the questions asked Mrs Faz and I have decided we are dumb. We would just confess ignorance and not make ridiculous answers.
Anyway, everone knows that the French emblem is a frog. The contestant was just plain dumb.

The French National symbol is of course a blockaded Channel port
