Was having a think today when having breakfast at our "national anthem". Personally I dislike the usual "God save the Queen" as I dislike the idea of the monarchy, and view Britain as being about the people not a class of people above.

So, which song would you like to see as the official anthem?

1:
(Land of Hope and Glory)


2:
(Jerusalem)

3:
(God save the Queen).

4: Other.
 
Anything with no reference to that old bag in it.

But I'm bias as I think we should become a Republic.

(Awaits the hordes of mindless zombie drones who like being subjects/subservient to an ancient German family of inbreds)
 
I have to admit to being a huge fan of Land of Hope and Glory, however I see it as more of a British Anthem instead of God Save the Queen which is for the English.
 
Personally I like the Jerusalem one best, with Land of Hope and glory coming up closely behind.

Showcases a real pride in the land, as well as our heritage.
 
Jerusalem is utter crap because it attempts to insert Jesus into our nationalist view. I Vow To Thee My Country is considerably better from a theological point of view, but I'm still not comfortable with our co-opting religion into this when our country is so devoid of Christians.
