British Patriots Feel Good

Stick with the herd, I'm sure it's served you well up to now.

 

Baa Humbug, I knew that the road signed "TRAITOR" was the one you would have taken!

God save the queen... Wave them flags.

[Dozy 11]

I voted "No".

 

I'm not British - I'm English.

 

And I don't see how the question relates to the topic anyway. Just because somebody says they're British, it doesn't necessarily mean they're patriotic, it's merely a statment of fact.

I thought it was just for the irish, scots,and welsh to hide behind

I love how VAT Man and the Boy Blunder and their media mouthpieces are trying to paint a picture that everything is rosey in the UK. Well it's not, as they know only to well. I don't know who they're trying to kid more, the UK public or themselves. It's typical of the Daily Fail to assume that a spot of flag waving will make everything ok.

Hahahaha

Your such a Brit hater.

 

Please point out anything anti British in that post.

There's an anti idiot statement in there but nothing anti British.

So if it questioned English, you would have answered Yes?

 

 

 

I'd rather have, say, an African economic migrant at my side who classed himself as British rather than someone born and raised here who held allegiances to another country.

I am british, so I like to support the underdog. mindless patriotism is uncouth

Royalty provides continuity, this queen has done a fantastic job and has been an asset to this nation.

Don't expect some cretins to understand what she does or its importance to the country.

As usual with the Daily Mail it is advisable to read what the story is (loosely) based on.

The article totally ignores the type of patriotism which makes people happy. (Clue: it's NOT ethnic nationalism).

it's a flawed poll, England was not on it. I am an Englishman first, British Second, Yorkshireman third and European NEVER EVER.

 

Angel.
