@Ed_Miliband When will this government stop being progressive cucks for things that happened hundreds of years ago that none of us alive today were apart of, and why aren’t we addressing the fact that Britons were also enslaved by North African corsairs? Sounds like a double standard to me.
Stop distorting the poppy to fit your political progressive agenda. The poppy isn’t a political emblem, it’s a historical one, to honour the fallen. Stop disrespecting the people that gave their lives for this great nation.
Alfred the Great died on this day, 1127 years ago.
Alfred set the foundations of a united England and drove the invaders out, while all odds were against him. In doing so, he secured the existence of the Anglo-Saxon race.
It is an honour for all Englishman today to call this man not just a hero, but an ancestor. Hail Alfred!
Considering ethnically British people created the country it creates a unique hypothetical scenario.
It's not the same as saying if you moved to China 200 years ago you're now Chinese .
Australia, Canada et all were all formed as part of a colony and were effectively satellite states of Britain for Britain people.
Being Australian is akin to being Welsh, Scottish, English etc.
It's a label inside a broader ethnic group.
Being a Falkland islander means the same.
The rise in inflation to 3.5% exposes the damaging ripple effect of excessive pump prices across the entire economy. Fuel is the essential lifeblood of Britain. When drivers, hauliers, tradespeople and small businesses are hammered at the pumps, the cost of moving goods rises and consumers inevitably pay the price. If ministers genuinely want to bring inflation down, they must start by making mobility more affordable. Cut fuel duty big time and do it now!!! @JohnHealey_MP@andyburnham
Today we honour Admiral Lord Nelson, a remarkable Briton and distinguished naval commander whose courage, leadership and sacrifice secured his place among the greatest figures in our history. His legacy remains a testament of what it truly means to be British.
Hail Nelson!
