Flapping is typical for American English (e.g. better is usually pronounced /bɛɾər/ rather than /bɛtər/), but I've also heard a few British speakers using it (EDIT: e.g. David Cameron saying better off right here).
- How common is it in British English?
- Is it specific for any dialect or style?
- Is it considered an Americanism? (not sure if that's a proper term for that)
