Brexit - What Happened to Patriotism ?


BREXIT –  WHAT HAPPENED TO PATRIOTISM ?                           

 

PATRIOTISM is the love of ones country. While people may not like all the things that happen in their name or within the country they still have a love for their country. A majority of the people in the United Kingdom are mostly patriotic, honest, hard working, God fearing, tax paying citizens who over the last 40 years have seen their lives and that of their families, communities and country change. They expect the politicians that they elected in 2017, on promises of honouring BREXIT, to carry out their duty and respect the wishes of the electorate. It is a pity that the majority of MPs, who stood in a constituency, made promises and then used a party system, or the good will of many volunteers, to get elected to represent these people, appear to be disloyal and unpatriotic, showing a total lack of love for our country and a lack of consideration for the wishes of their constituents.

 

During a rich history many people, both at home and abroad, have served to defend our freedom and the way of life that we appreciate. They have been prepared, patriotically, to put their lives on the line and some have been injured, suffered life changing injuries or made the ultimate sacrifice in the name of sovereign and country. They answer the ultimate question, “ Ask not what your country can do for you, but what you can do for your country” and we owe them our full support to make sure that the sacrifices of the past were not in vein

 

What right do the “FANATICAL REMAINER REBELS” have to change the outcome of the “PEOPLES VOTE”  Throughout history, convention has been that people who do not vote have to accept the decision of the majority as do those who lost the vote.

 

The people own the country and while politicians may come and go, banks and businesses will rise and fall, the country and its people will remain and therefore the people deserve to be listened to as they will have to live with the consequences of what happens now

.

They expect to see the United Kingdom “REGAIN” its Independence, its Sovereignty and its place on the World Stage.

BREXIT - St. GEORGES DAY IN ENGLAND.


BREXIT – St. GEORGES DAY IN ENGLAND

 

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.

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.


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.

It is a chance for the English people to show the patriotic spirit that makes us proud of our country, of our ingenuity and our industry. 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.

 
BE ENGLISH and BE PROUD.

BREXIT - THERE'LL ALWAYS BE AN ENGLAND.


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.
