We're proud of our heritage and the Red, White and Blue

Fly the flag of Saint George or the Union Jack

Let the world know - WE WANT OUR ENGLAND BACK !!!! <<<<



Someone said, sniffily, above, that England's flag has no blue in it. Well yes, that's fairly obvious, as is what is being said there in those words I've quoted...that the English are proud of both *their* heritage and that of Great Britain too.

This thread...and no Villan, I am not flaming, just flaming mad...this thread sums up all that has given the BNP such power!


The instant, hysterical cries of 'Facist!' purely because someone has written some words about being fed up at not being able to celebrate their country. Oh fer goodness sake, you lot, grow UP!

This Extreme Left campaign to take England our of the English has failed miserably, causing a backlash they never envisaged...and that is to let the REAL facists *in* amongst people who are sick fed up of not being able to be proud of their country.

There is nothing wrong at all in looking back at England's past. Why the hell shouldn't we do that? We have the most amazing past, one that is so often the envy of the world. It's called....er....our HISTORY and it encompasses so much good, amongst the bad.

There are times when I feel a little like England you know, because the Extreme Left has splattered untruths about me to, it has put many people off being close to me, put them off daring to stand beside me and with me....so I know exactly how their campaigns work.

They are often filled with more hatred than the people they profess to hate so much, being just as determined to weed out those amongst them who they feel 'do not belong'.

I love this country, it is my country, the land of my birth. It is where I grew up and it is where, apart from a short weekend in Paris about 30 years back, I have spent every single waking day of my life.

It is the country my dear Dad and his pals went to war for. It is the country Douglas Bader and his pals put their lives on the line for. It is the country Mike Harding's Dad gave his life for.

It is the most beautiful country. It is a country where half the world seemingly wants to come and live. Why is that do you think?

It is a welcoming, arms outstretched, falling over sideways to be called anything but racist country, where folks are welcomed from around the globe, regardless of race, colour or background.

It is a country of cricket played on village greens, where ancient trees still grow amongst the country houses....where the bells ring out from the church spires...and ancient woodlands still exist alongside motorways and new towns.

But......

.....it is a country that has lost her way. She has had her religion lambasted by the Extreme Left, she has had her history covered over. Her people have been brainwashed into denying her at times...

'They' bleat on about St. George not even being English, when the whole bloody point of the tale of St. George and the Dragon is about Good defeating Evil....and as a child, I loved the thought that my country stood for Good.

I was raised by a man who loved England, who had England running through his veins...and that blood runs in mine too.

Loving England does NOT make you a racist or a facist....

I have been called both.
I am neither.

I don't give a flying English arrow who does or does not believe that, nor who spreads vile rumours about me to the contrary, because *I* know, and that is way good enough for me.

People have been frightened into NOT admitting that they love their country. There has been a campaign of intimidation about this whole sorry affair...and those who have carried it out should shake their heads in sorrow for what they've done.

Yes, we love curry over here. Yes, we love The Nottinghill Carnival.
Yes, we love many things from other countries, but yes, we also love ENGLAND and there is NOTHING wrong with that.

As I have said before...I have no problem if the cricket of today is played by rainbow coloured people, under church spires on village greens....

What I DO have a problem with is people telling me that this is a 'chocolate box fantasy' of England, because it is NOT. I watched those cricket matches, I was there at the time...and they are amongst my many thousands of memories of my country.

I am deeply proud of my country, but also deeply distressed at what has happened to so many of her young people, who are drinking themselves into obllivion, and yes, the Extreme Left will of course deny this is happening, as ever...but tell me, why is it costing the NHS a fortune, if it's not happening?

We have young people who know nothing of their history!   And what is worse, they don't care. They simply live for the next party, the next club night out, the next Posh Spice new frock. They have no sense of who they are...no 'roots'.......

And as someone once said...

"We've lost more than we'll ever know round the rocky shores of England"


To deny this country, because you are shit scared of the BNP aligning themselves with you, is ridiculous. Take the flag BACK, don't burn it or tell others not to be associated with it for Gawd's sake!

You make the flag of St. George stand for the very thing it has always stood for, Good Over Evil....and you take it BACK from the BNP and from the Extreme Left to, putting it back into the hands of the English people themselves, of all colours.

Love my country......or leave it, but do NOT tell me to deny it...and in my not denying my pride, do not call me a facist or a racist, because that way of thinking has done more damage, given more power to the BNP than the Extremists could ever have dreamt would happen.
