NATIONAL PRIDE

Any more of a self delusional joke?

Just spoken to my mother about ‘Great’ Britain and alas, she has an older generation’s, (in my opinion) idiotic attitude.

We’re a country raped by most; Romans, Anglo Saxons, Vikings, Normans, etc. Yet still our country is great? We’re not even our own people! We’re bastard children. The Brythons are dead. They were the original British.

National Pride is a bull shit concept, especially in Britain. Why shouldn’t people fleeing potential fatalities come to our country… we would flee to theirs if it was the other way. We’re already immigrating to the sunny mainland.

Rant over. 

EDIT - I am losing followers fast for this. Haha.
