"The way back for England isn't to gaze dreamily at chocolate box lids and yearn for what never was and rant garbage about "in my day". England has changed irrevocably, in many ways for the better."


But...it DID exist, Diane. I know, I was IN it. I was there...as were millions of us...and this attitude of denial has, imo, fed the BNP masses of voters.

It will continue to send people over to the BNP too, and that is a terrible danger.

Stop denying the good, wonderful, beautiful, incredible, heart-soaring things about our past, because this constant moan of 'it was never like that, we were a Land of Bullies' has had the most terrible effect on this country, and is now giving rise to a terrible anger.

That anger is being sent down the wrong paths. You know it. I know it. So *why* do you insist in carrying it on?

Do you WANT people to walk down the BNP path????????

The BNP have seized upon this 'Do NOT be proud to be English because we're all Oppressors' shit, and they have spun it to their own advantage.

It makes me so bloody mad...and so bloody sad.


And yet, you talk to ME of education????????   You cannot see even the most obvious thing, when it is staring you in the face!

The Extreme Left have handed voters to the Extreme Right.

And that is something you are proud of??????


Go get Educated, Honey.
