Goodbye England ?
8 Answers
Goodbye to my England , So long my old friend
Your days are numbered, being brought to an end
To be Scottish, Irish or Welsh that's fine
But don't say you're English, that's way out of line.
The French and the Germans may call themselves such
So may Norwegians, the Swedes and the Dutch
You can say you are Russian or maybe a Dane
But don't say you're English ever again.
At Broadcasting House the word is taboo
In Brussels it's scrapped, in Parliament too
Even schools are affected. Staff do as they're told
They must not teach children about England of old.
Writers like Shakespeare, Milton and Shaw
The pupils don't learn about them anymore
How about Agincourt, Hastings , Arnhem or Mons ?
When England lost hosts of her very brave sons.
We are not Europeans, how can we be?
Europe is miles away, over the sea
We're the English from England , let's all be proud
Stand up and be counted - Shout it out loud!
Let's tell our Government and Brussels too
We're proud of our heritage and the Red, White and Blue
Fly the flag of Saint George or the Union Jack
Let the world know - WE WANT OUR ENGLAND BACK !!!!
If you are English, pass it on please.

had a nightmate week (so whats new) - Mum is being transferred to a new Home next Tuesday, after much arguing with Social Services. She is covered in bruises and we had to get our own chiropodist in to cut her toenails, they were so painful she could'nt walk. More to the story, but I'll give you a ring.
I don't agree - I'm English by birth but equally I don't mind being called British, or a UK Citizen. My father was Welsh, my mother was part-Irish, OH is a Scot. I'm multilingual, and you could see France from my office window this morning. I fly my flag, I support the England Rugby team. Europe is nearer to me than London.
