What a tedious conversation on LBC at the moment. Debating whether you are English. We going there again. duck me, what is the problem with being English and accepting yourself, If you are born and raised in ENGLAND, as ENGLISH! some idiots calling in talking about English being a race. Scotland is a country and England isn't apparently. Have people lost their damn minds here, in England?! I'm seriously questioning many people.
I personally find nationalism a stupid bleeping concept anyway. You being defined by what piece of land you are born on. Where your ancestors from? Where were their ancestors from, etc. Go back far enough and our ancient ancestors moved around and didn't have a settled status and, if they did, they wouldn't have given that piece of land a name, assigned a flag to it, and sang an anthem for it. I'm bored of hearing about nationalism at this point. We are ultimately humans - nothing more, nothing less. Strip away nationalism, what have we got? A better world in my opinion.
