Thread Name: English Culture - What is it?
Subject: RE: English Culture - What is it?
Yup, it's OUR country, but it's also MY country, same for anyone else who loves England.

You like the punk movement, that's fine by me. Your choice is your choice and you are entitled to it. I didn't like it, nor what went with it, or what is left over from it. This country has been at war within itself for way too long.

Village greens exist still to this day, as do many other things from an England that many want to wipe out. We are a mixture of old and new, not just new, and that is what I have a problem with, being made to feel that I do not have a right to the England I grew up in.

I do.

It was and is my England. And it always will be.
