Thread Name: Icons of Englishness?
Subject: RE: Icons of Englishness?
Sadly the English hold the title of a nation high on the European list for abusing children. Over the past ten years alone several high profile cases concerning the murder and abuse of children has gained them that title.
They also hold the title of the worst football supporters in Europe (often seen holding blow-up Spitefires at games in Europe).
We could also explore their record for human rights abuse in the North of Ireland with both their police force and military being found guilty of crimes, including torture.
If I were English, I would keep it quiet, not a lot to boast about.
