... but are you still proud?

[Dracata]

We moan about immigration.. racial tension, politics, the military, religion and the way our taxes are being spent.

... but are you still proud to be british?

I saw this and it just reminded me that behind/above it all, I really am proud to be british

.. And for once let's leave out all the (I'm not british.. i'm scottish/welsh/irish)

"Britain's Royal Air Force Aerobatic Team, also known as the Red Arrows, fly in formation past Big Ben in London on Tuesday. The flyby was organized to mark the 90th anniversary of the formation of the RAF in 1918."

Hope a proper Health and Safety risk assessment was performed....

a bunch of planes flying over a clock tower made you think this?

No, just reminded me of the subject of the UK, which somehow got me onto this subject

 

[V4NT0M]

They tried but it's a bit hard to asses the risk as your pulling so many G's so they had to go ahead without Health and safety Approval

It's not often you get the Red Arrows accompanied by some Typhoons in central London at 300 or so feet above the ground doing 300knots. I thought it was quite cool - I don't know if for me it symbolises patriotism, but it's certainly cool to see.

I didn't see them but I heard them

I'm happy the RAF still exists, but it won't be many years till the forces get merged! Britain's landmass makes me happy, Britain's population makes me sick

I wouldn't say it symbolises patriotism for me, but it stirred something which in turn just made me think above it all i'm still happy to be who/where I am..

I saw a triangle of grey fighter jets like those ones fly over at about 630 yesturday, pretty cool sight as they were very low

You're fake!

I am proud of our heritage not proud of what state we are in now.

 

[Solari]

Shopped.

I can tell by the pixels, having seen many shops in my time

 

[CoreRipOffDuo]

No.

The government make us look bad.
The holiday makers make us look bad.
The spoilt teens make us look bad.
The yob culture makes us look bad.
The dole queue bums make us look bad.
The lazy ******* 'bad back' crowd make us look bad.
The poor education system makes us look bad.
The poor heath care fatalities make us look bad.
The taxes are abysmal.

I could go on for quite some time.

Proud to be British? Hardly.

 

[wordy]

I've always been proud of this country, just not proud of the people who run it, or some of the people who live here.

*Starts Singing*
And did those feet in ancient time
Walk upon England's mountains green
And was the holy lamb of God
On England's pleasant pastures seen....
*continues hoping other patriots join in*
