Re: Are you proud to be British?
Patriotism, pride and religion have been on the list of 'major reforms' for all EU countries, but I believe it started with destroying the 'competitive spirit' of children in the 1980's.
Modern day robots all thinking the same, all in agreement, all expecting the same rewards for good behaviour, and all looking towards EU for security.. basically 'controlled' . It's like something out of a Sci-Fi movie of the 70's.
Thank goodness there are a few of us remaining who can see all the pitfalls and the insidious plans . Take away the pride and the spirit, and we have exactly what Surfermom explained.
I wouldn't expect anyone who wasn't born here to feel pride, but the least they could do would be to acknowledge the fact that they chose to live here for obviously very good reasons. That makes me even more proud, even if they aren't !
