Bloody quiet on here today...

...let's wake up the pinko's!!...

 

 

Proud To Be British?

 

HOW ironic that it’s New Labour introducing a test for immigrants on what it means to be British.

 

Since it came to power in 1997, this government has done its utmost to destroy any concept of Britishness.

 

It has tried to tear up the past, to rubbish or ignore our history, to destroy the whole concept of Britain.

 

Labour has built on 30 years of post-colonial, guilt-ridden propaganda in schools, universities, broadcasting and the left-wing media.

 

British history is constantly painted in the worst possible light.

 

Schoolchildren are taught that the Empire was a racist, slave-mongering tyranny for which we should all be deeply ashamed.

 

This completely ignores the enlightenment, advancement, prosperity, rule of law, democracy and liberty which the Empire, and subsequently the Commonwealth, brought to the world.

 

How many pupils know, for instance, that it was the British Navy that brought about the end of the slave trade? We are told that mud huts and wood carvings are the equal of St Paul’s and Shakespeare.

 

Even when they bother to teach the history of the Second World War, they now proclaim that the bombing of Germany in self-defence was a war crime on a par with the Holocaust.

 

The entire teaching of history in state schools is designed to denigrate our achievements, one of the greatest of which is the Union itself. Britain has always been greater than the sum of its parts.

 

It has enabled us to punch above our weight on the international stage, whether in trade or war.

 

Yet Blair has deliberately broken up the Union, mercilessly attacked our institutions and moved heaven and earth in a relentless and partly successful campaign to strip us of the power to govern ourselves.

 

Even his much-trumpeted devolution, which delivered Toytown parliaments to Scotland and Wales, was only stage one of the grand masterplan to tear up Britain and submerge what is left of it into a vast, remote, neo-socialist European superstate.

 

Stage two is the dismantling of England into irrelevant and artificial “regions” to comply with the map drawn up by the federasts in Europe.

 

Over the coming weeks the process will be accelerated by Blair signing up to the new European constitution, which will torpedo 1,000 years of history without any democratic authority.

 

He will pretend he has drawn “red lines” and will return from the October summit declaring “victory” for Britain, just like Johnny Major’s “game, set and match” at Maastricht, another craven, deluded defeat.

 

But in reality he will surrender virtually everything the architects of the brave new Europe want and henceforth Britain will be governed by people we haven’t voted for and will not be able to remove.

 

The question of whether or not we have a referendum on the euro becomes academic.

 

Control of our economy, like our legal system, our fisheries industry, our farming industry and just about everything else which matters, passes to Europe.

 

Those of us who dare to complain that we wish to remain an independent, sovereign nation with our own laws and our own currency will continue to be smeared as “Little Englanders”.

 

And that nasty phrase encapsulates Labour’s real view of the world.

 

It’s not so much Britain Labour hates, it’s the English.

 

Minister after minister has denounced any notion of English national pride as a reincarnation of the worst excesses of Nazi Germany.

 

While embracing the romantic vision of Welsh nationalism and Scottish nationalism, and capitulating to the blood-stained terrorism of Irish nationalism, any thought that the English might be allowed some say in the way their nation is run is ridiculed and abused.

 

The Cabinet is packed with ministers whom the English cannot vote from office. The NHS is run by John Reid, a Scot, who has no authority over the health service in his own constituency.

 

I suppose if you accept that as democratic, then the idea of Britain being run by unaccountable bureaucrats from Brussels and Strasbourg is merely the logical conclusion.

 

Labour has re-written history, telling us falsely we are a “nation of immigrants” when in effect, until fairly recently, we had a settled population for almost a millennium.

 

Even now, after mass immigration, more than 90 per cent of the British define themselves as white and nominally Christian.

 

We are told we are “multi-cultural” but outside the main cities this simply isn’t true.

 

Immigrants have always set up home in the main centres of population, where the work is.

 

And it is a tribute to all of us that, by and large, this has been accomplished reasonably peacefully and successfully.

 

Despite pockets of prejudice, Britain — and England, in particular — is the least racist nation in Europe, possibly on Earth.

 

But you’ll never hear any politician or professional race warrior admit that.

 

Labour has seriously damaged and undermined that success by opening our borders to hundreds of thousands of illegal immigrants and asylum seekers who have no connection with this country and no right to be here.

 

Belatedly, it appears to have acknowledged that far from promoting “inclusion” it has created ghettos, resentment and division.

 

The “Britishness” test is a step aimed at addressing that but it will only apply to those wishing to settle here lawfully, who have always been welcome.

 

But what is the point of putting immigrants through hoops when the government itself seems to be ashamed of being British?

Thats a long post you have written Zeal how long did it take you to write

[Colin Zeal EFM]

Ctrl C and then Ctrl V does the trick, Paddy.

 

 

[Boot CleanerEFM]

what do you mean

[Colin Zeal EFM]

Patrick, why don't you write an essay on here (500 words should do it) on what you got up to during your school hols.

 

 

[SteveP]

Or he could always copy any old tripe from The Sun...

[Laz]

Patrick you PC has a feature called the clipboard onto which you can copy anything (well almost). Simply swipe some text with the mouse, hold the Ctrl key down and press C. Release both keys and the clipboard contains your text. Now go to were you want to copy it to and do Ctrl + V in the same way. It pastes the copied text to the new location. You can repeat it several times if you want.

ok here goes i went on a summer holiday for 2 weeks
and it was very good. I mainly just layed around the pool.

One night the hotel invited us to the posh upstairs restaurant.
We had a 5 course meal. I had my first course was a pastry round
thing with a cheesy sauce in the middle really nice.
Next course was a green spaghetti with red mince on the top really nice.
The next thing i had was the nicest meal i had it was a Lemon Sorbet Really nice.
The next course was lamb with gravy carrots potatoes and
green beans rapped in bacon really nice.
Then the last course was quite disappointing it was vannila ice cream
with rasberry sauce and chocolate sauce quite sickning.

Then i came home Since then i have just been playing football every day
(Well not every day but most days) and i went to the cinema a couple of times.

I went back to school on the 3rd of september so i
couldn't go to the Canvey game, <img src="/images/graemlins/frown.gif" alt="" /> and yesterday i sprained my ancle yesterday <img src="/images/graemlins/shocked.gif" alt="" />.

Hey, I took the Britishness test on AOL and I got 7/10! But for some reason there was a question on Dr.Who in there. Obviously it wasn't the full version though.
