The March Will Take Place On 27th April

[Pretty pink fairy]

If you want to celebrate Englishness, as you put it, why don't you have a parade, like other countries, rather than a march.

what a march down grand parade i can see what you're saying

 

[Pretty pink fairy]

I've just had a look at the website. I found the following quote:

" We are classed as racist to fly our flag in a march, but when supporting our country when England play football it is deemed acceptable, this is thanks to the left government and the left media"


HA HA HA HA!


Anyone who things the government, or the media, in this country is "left" has got to have the brains of a dead slug!

English Democrats? That's Garry Bushell's mob. "Tucker's Ruckers Ain't No Suckers"
"Nuff said. And all this posted by someone who took his name from a bunch of Nazi war criminals (sent packing to Valhalla by anti fascists as always) and doesn't even know that Ian 'nazis can't drive' Stuart's band Skrewdriver was spelt with a K (or should I say a KKK) not a C. Seagulls? Sieg Heil, more like.
All together now:

'Waterloo, couldn't escape if I wanted to!'

oi oi oi strength through joy and all that, bushell at his best dont you think

I came into work today to see a "Britain - Like It or Leave It" sticker on an Escort convertible in the car park - not being a snob or anything but I think it must belong to one of the cleaners...

Why does it have to be a choice?

I like Britain AND I left it.

highlighted for all the people who don't think adequate spelling is important - what does that mean?

under pressure i suspect

 

[SULLY COULDNT SHOOT]

I like Britain and left it..... BY CHOICE!

Despite not being very English myself, there's a lot of "Englishness" well worth celebrating. OK, it's a rather sentimental list that includes teatime, roast beef and Yorkshire pud, Morris Dancing, cricket on the village green, the conversational opportunities presented by the weather and the like, but for all that England is a special place.

However, the problem I have when I read exhortations to come out and "March for England" is that these events rarely celebrate Englishness but instead, are demonstrations of what (to the organisers and the more extreme participants) is wrong with England.

Not surprisingly, this "wrongness" will start and end with "foreigners" and include a liberal portion of Islamophobia and the BNP manifesto along the way.

Only seven years out. Under Pressure was 1981 - I left in 1988.

And it wasn't Jamaica - I did leave of my own accord.

 

[The Wookiee]

This is exactly the same discussion that occured on March - North Stand Chat which Bozza closed in the end.

Do we need to go over it again?

I have just read that thread.

Why are you taking the mickey out of him for his poor spelling and punctuation ?

Somebody was even implying he is stupid and thick because he cant spell.

Bit harsh dont you think ?

what was you're choice if you dont mind me asking?

but the pressure helped you make that descision

erm... to stay or go?

But my decison was based on the fact that it is too expensive to bring up a child the way we wanted to in the UK. We had no family members living near us to support us whereas we did here in Turkey. We wanted our daughter to grow up with someone always being at home for her and always have the support of the family. That wasn't financially viable in the UK.

i take it you have either been on a march or observed one

so what you are saying is that you still wanted to work ,but didn't want to pay for child care

I'm not entirely sure what this "pressure" is that you're talking about. If you mean the fact that Glenn Medeiros was number one in the UK at the time, then it's possibly true to say that hearing "Nothing's Gonna Change My Love For You" on the radio all the bloody time may have convinced me not to change my mind at the last moment.

Other than that I left to go travelling and to broaden my horizons - no one forced me to. It just happened that there's never been a decent enough reason for me to want to move back.

good stuff anywhere specific

Not quite... I work here and I worked in the UK. We didn't WANT chid care... we want our daughter to be brought up the traditional way through family not with outsiders which seems to be supported by all child psychologists. Here in Turkey we could do that. Not having family close one of us would have had to give up our jobs and we couldn't afford that.

If I could have done my job or if my wife could've done her job from home that might have worked but that wasn't an option to us.

I am a bit confused by, what has a nazi cross, a stiffened right arm and white power got to do with being English?

An an englishman these three concepts are alien to me and derived from another culture!
