What is there to pledge allegiance to these days?
Queen and country? The royal family is a complete joke and has been for years – who respects them ‘cept white haired old ladies and Wenchy? Each generation gets worse… the only one I ever had respect for was horse face.
And what is there to respect in the country nowadays? Everything British that we recognised as children is being destroyed by the PC brigade in the cause of multiculturalism. Multiculturalism my arse!
The country makes nothing and survives on ‘service’ industries – just about anything you can think of that was ‘great’ has been sold off to the highest bidder, the transport system is shite, the NHS is unbelievably crap, crime has reached unbelievable proportions and everybody knows that the Olympic Games will be an unprecedented farce with a single-figure medal count.
For cod’s sake the only sport we can be proud of these days is the Paralympics – I nearly typed paralytics then which would have been closer to the truth. Football, no; cricket, no; rugby, no; the country specialises in producing dole scroungers and binge drinkers!
I remember when I was at primary school (say 1967ish) the first black boy joined us. An African lad called Kwaku Umpoma – everybody liked him and we were fascinated by his features and amazing sporting ability but look at the schools shown on TV now – you can’t spot a white person in the crowd and lessons consist of religious appreciation and Welsh.
You can’t solve the countries problems by getting Mgumbo Bjarti to swear allegiance to the crown and country when he really follows a foreign football/cricket team attends the local mosque at weekends and has a home life and culture that none of us on this board would recognise.
That’s my two cents anyway…
