BREXIT –
THERE’LL ALWAYS BE AN ENGLAND .
You only need to listen
to Dame Vera Lynn singing “There’ll always be an England, and England will be
free” to appreciate the sacrifice that many people have given over the years to
maintain that freedom, it is readily available on Youtube, and the
responsibility that we owe to previous generations to maintain that status for
future generations.
If the Brexit
campaign fails and the United Kingdom
votes to remain a member of the European Union then I believe that England , as an independent country, will almost
certainly cease to exist as it will be absorbed as a federal state of a Franco–German
dominated EU, and become “formerly known as England ”. The only use of the name
will be on football shirts, rugby shirts, cricket team and possibly athletics. England is not here to be absorbed into the
Franco–German EU, we are a strong and proud people and when we regain our
independence we will work, as the largest part of the UK , to help put the UK where it deserves to be, fighting
our own corner from a position of strength.
The 23rd
April 2016 is St. Georges Day, which offers an opportunity to celebrate the
patron saint of England
and fly the flag for English culture in general. The Prime Minister, David
Cameron is on record as having said that St. Georges Day has been overlooked
“for too long” and the country should celebrate what it is to be English. Tony
Blair refused to acknowledge it as having any form of importance and refused to
grant it the status of a Bank Holiday despite pressure from groups and the fact
that Scotland and Ireland both
have a Bank Holiday to celebrate their National Days.
I
hope that every English person will take this opportunity, regardless of colour
or religious beliefs, to recognise the things that bind us together. Be proud
to be English and wear the Flag of St. George, a lapel badge, a patch, t-shirt,
hat or what ever suits and as its on a Saturday find a local celebration to
join in to and enjoy.
