+As far as I understand, that is a common British thing to do when one agree with the current speaker.
+(Watch news reports involving the British government's debates, usually involving the Prime minister, for some examples)
+Another way I see people do the exact same thing is replying with "+1". "Hear, hear" is the same thing.

+Untill someone comes with valid claims that this have the exact opposite meaning or to be offensive in another other country, I intend to keep using it. :-)=
