The finest Empire the world has ever seen.


Yes it was. It seems to be a matter of liberal orthodoxy that the empire was a bad thing but so many countries in it were better off ruled by us.

 


Yes, I am an agent of Satan but my duties are largely ceremonial

I,M ENGLISH not bloody british

ENGLAND I SAY.


Yes your grasp of the language is impressive.

Very disppointed at some of the anti - Welsh / Scottish & Irish comments. Being English in itself is all about being a mixture of god knows how many nationalities.

I am proud to be Welsh but I am also proud to be British we all as a nation have achieved far more than a lot of countries that are a great deal larger than us.

My single biggest reason for being proud of being British is that as a nation, we faced down the Nazis in 1939 when we could have easily taken the soft option and appeased Hitler. If we hadn't we would now live in a very different world.

We are also defined by our manners.
