GUEST,heed English National Anthem (148* d) RE: English National Anthem 02 Mar 07


if you want a new english anthem one.

http://petitions.pm.gov.uk/anthem/

"We the undersigned petition the Prime Minister to initiate a Parliamentary debate on the adoption of a national anthem for England that is distinct from the British national anthem.

The British anthem - God Save the Queen - should not be sung by the English as an English anthem.

It is disrespectful to England, Scotland and Wales to conflate England with Britain in this way; for England is a nation every bit as much as Scotland and Wales, and those Scots and Welsh that still consider themselves British are now obliged to boo their own anthem for fear of being regarded as traitors by an increasingly nationalistic tendency."
