Is Boris going to stop our festivals?

[DotCommunist]

I slag the left off, because I'm technically right. It's one issue the left have got the wrong way around. Steer into a national day of celebration and watch barriers within communities fall.

I'll ask the question again in different form

Given Englands cultural and pysical dominance over the last century is there not an apathy for a national day because we never bloody needed one when we were showing johnny foriegner what for and owning most of the map? Never mind that we don't now have any real imperialistic power just think of geoff capes and Roast Dinners and dresden ENGERLUND ENGERLUND

im actually a fake jihadist dhimmi on a secret mission to spread love and halal marmite sandwiches throughout the western world

im secretly being run by jonathan king, the Ordo Templi Orientis and al quada to fulfil their deep down hatred of the English working class and their patriotic plot to have the flag of st george stapled to the head of every newborn, pureblood english child

i do this by being a single parent and part time labourer as a disguise to conceal my deadly multi-cultural agenda

i will not rest until EVERY baby is coffee coloured and Fuck the Police by known negroes NWA is our national anthem

im also a bit pissed

You have a point?

Quck summary so far of the last 2 pages of comments.

1) Nobody, I recall, has said that anyone should be excluded from a St George's day celebration ... if people call themselves English then I don't see any reason why they can't participate.

2) Notting Hill Carnival is not really a 'traditional english' type of event - and it's on the wrong day to be a St George's Day anyway... plus I doubt the organisers would want it taken over for a national day.

It's unfortunate that the 'British identity' has long been eroded, by the refusal of people who have come in to accept our way of life and integrate - rather we've had to change to accommodate them. That, my friends, is why it's so difficult to identify what is 'British' any more.

I quite like the idea of a nationwide Great British Carnival.

Good excuse for a party, and the fears it might get hijacked by the fash are unfounded and a bit sad.

Hold it every Mayday, it would be fine.

If the fash wanted their own inbred festy then they'd have one in some shithole like Barrow in Furness.

Nobody who mattered would give a fuck as they'd be too busy having fun eating Indian food and listening to Afro Celt Sound System whilst drinking Belgian beer and smoking Dutch weed.

The notion that liking life in Britain somehow means you must automatically be some kind of white wolf nationalist retard is plainly absurd.

Sure, theres a lot to moan about, but once you get off your arse and travel the world a bit, you soon realise there are far, far worse places to have been born...

You have no identity? How sad.

Not one that depends on where I was born, or the countries I've lived in. I just don't understand why tying yourself to the flagpole is so important to you. Well, I do, a little, because you have personal issues that are eating you up inside, but turning it into a vague nationalist statement is not the way to help yourself.

Spare me the amateur psychology, you don't know me and haven't a clue what you're talking about.

What is it about pride in one's country of origin that makes you feel so threatened?

This response is telling, really. Lose the anger, mate. Take a fresh look at your world.

I don't know where you get 'anger' from, you aren't upsetting me in the slightest because you are totally irrelevant in the grand scheme of things. Just another anonymous name on a message forum that I will probably never knowingly meet, and be none the worse for it.

Then why bother responding?

To correct you. Clearly, you needed more of it as a child.

Ok, I'll drop Lizzie a letter and tell her that I've been democratically elected (one vote in favour, no other candidates stood) to take over the country, and I'll let you know when she gives me a date to take over.
