interflite: Yes just a simple question.
Are you proud to be British?? And if not why not ??
yes i am Are you proud to be British?? And if not why not ??
Yes Ernie i think your answer reflects wghat a lot of ppl think,
But are gagged. from saying anything. As you said many who died to stop this country from being INVADED would turn in there graves.
We have no manufacturing now. We import things we could manufacture oursel;ves
But i think the British bubble has burst. Were all going down the TUBE very fast

I am proud of where I come from but embarrassed by the idiots that run this country. Could go on a major rant here but dont want to get worked up into a frenzy. Jeremy Clarkson for no. 10!
The P.C brigade also, get me worked up like you wouldnt believe. I saw an article in the paper recently about a group of students that designed a politically correct pizza. A F*****G pizza!!!!!

And that is only the tip of the iceberg, They forgety to tell you that immigrants dont pay for there Utilities. GAS WATER Electricity. In actuality we have half the population RUSSIA has . And the size of there country..
There is a certain party which i wont name campaigning to tell the indigenous population what is going ON.
We as a nation are fastly loosing our identity.
Our culture is being eroded. We dont have a voice anymore. .
I only saw a goverment advert recently on the TV regarding BENEFIT CHEATS. Apparently its only indigenous ppl cheat the goverment.??
So we all pay our taxes and wonder where it goes. ????? Even failed asylum seekers are not deported . They are allowed to wonder our streets . . .
GERMANY have strict procedures The same with Holland. And the French. feed them up so they can depart for the SOFT touch country.

Yep, It's certainly all gone wrong Interflite.
I am proud to be British. But like others, I'm not proud of the twerps that run the joint
Stay proud to be British, you're a really nice bunch of people. i can confirm that as I have lived abroad and you don't meet nicer thatn the British (well there are a few not so nice ones, but in general).
The thing about the British is that they are tolerent of perhaps too much and they moan in silence unlike the French who go up in arms about the slightest thing. The British don't want to get like that but the peolpe's voice needs to be heard!!!
Why do most immigrants cross France to get into Britain, because it's much harder for them to stay here, it's endless papers in France and the French are hot on ID. They need to tighten up the system in Britain, paper and admin are not pleasant but do have their purposes.
Looking at it from an immigrants point of view, if you had atough life somewhere and thought you could do better for yourself and your family, well you would probably do the same thing!!
Just stay nice, that's all, having lived abroad I can guarantee that you are!!!

hi ernie. i wont and cant offer you any arguments. But i dont want to see you Banned. just cOOL it man. We can argue and reflect on issues. which we cant be blaed for inciting trouble with other members.
Yes you are RGHT. The taloids are full of f////king rubblish.
For a prpose to take your mind of the real issues
The troops employed in Afganistan and Iraq should be HERE patroling our Borders . The U S have border patrols. to stop illegal migrants. from getting in.
And i fail to see how a truck driver does.nt know whats in the back of his truck. ??when he leaves France. There on a good thing Believe me.
I know one truck driver MINTED .

RESPECT is the key word here, there seems to be a distinct lack of it. When people enter another country they should have respect for the rules and laws.
The problem is that many immigrants come from countries where if they step out of line the discipline is tough. When they see they can get away with things because the punishment isn't hard, well........ they just start taking advantage of what they consider a laxist system !! Some cultures need and are used to more discipline than others.
As for asking immigrants to come work cheaply surely the government know that there is a price to pay i.e. providing housing and benefits etc, surely if the government did their accounts it doesn't really work out in their favour! Is it really cheap labour in the end?

england is a great place to live ,thats why everyone wants to come here,Wrong.
If thats the case, why are so many Brits opting to move abroad?
We pay higher taxes than anyone in Europe. Have tax laws that dont even exist in other countries, the citizens of the U.K get treated like second class ones from our own government.
Actualy, I suppose you are right, Britain (or England as you say, I forgot most English people class England as the whole of Britain) is a great place to live.......if you're not British (or English)

smany ppl always use ENGLAND when in turn they mean BRITAIN .
But even the uk address is loosing its value as i got mail the other day addressed as BOOZE BRITAIN .
I wonder if these ppl who are proud would take the same stance if there is a drop in there wages??
Even todays NEWS regarding a recession. will happen. And with us being a CASINO economy. trading on Global finance we will suffer.
The time when we use to be the workshop of the world has sadly gone.
Ill reiterate again what i said earlier WE MAKE NOTHING.
Jaguar laying ppl
ROLLs ROYCE now in foreign hands laying ppl off.
But goverment reminds us that we need skills Where i dont know as Engineering now is a dirty word.
And a army who is always ill equipped
Am i proud of being british ?????

In answer to Ernie, I wish the answer wasn't to have to run from your home and country. i have lived abroad and it aint all easy, I can guarantee you that after the novelty wears off you will miss Britain even if it's only the pubs lol!
Not all Brits abroad try to fit in either, they often don't realise the necessity of learning the language of their new country and sometimes don't get to grips with the culture because of that !
Do understand the frustration that people are feeling. You all need to shout a bit louder and get a hearing!
If you're going abroad try to keep something in Britain in case it doesn't work out! You never know!

no i am not proud to be british gordon brown and is henchmen have made sure of that.
Have to say no i'm not, after seeing the way my fellow countrymen behave when here on holiday when drunk, having a good time is one thing but more often than not they become abusive , disrespectful, and want to fit the world
