I’ve got an inch on you.

But some of the scariest people I’ve ever met are 6 minus.

If Nationalism is what has happened to the country over the last month I'm fully on board.

That England team is representative of modern England and the England I grew up in in so so many ways.

Totally agree, people from all backgrounds uniting behind one flag in a positive manner.

There is a textbook definition of nationalism which is the following -

"an extreme form of patriotism marked by a feeling of superiority over other countries"

So the "moderate" nationalists either aren't nationalists at all or they're being dishonest about how moderate they really are.

But half of those statements are based on opinions. So the benchmark of superiority is by default not based on anything other than people thinking they’re inherently better than other people, just because they say so.

I’m sure plenty of nations had terrific turnouts to watch games. I’m sure plenty of nations would feel their songs are better. So that is still an implication of being superior on the basis of nationality alone.

Well they don't do that, it is us the UK.

If the UK wants to commit suicide that's for the UK but you can't any longer pretend we are superior to anyone else.

Not that we ever were.
