National Anthem

[callmeBadger]

Now that we have solved the problem with lighting the Flame for the 2012 ceremony, solution send in the outsorced french chavs for David Beckham to kick into a flaming vat.

What should we do about our natioanal Anthem.

Listening to other peoples anthems over the games period, some are quiet good. Can't understand a word most of them are in, as they are all sang in The Foreign.

Some you could march to and invade countys with. Ours, a bit wet. God Save our Queen, God Save our Queen,God Save our Queen, yadayadayadayada

Can we start a movement to change it to something more up lifting? Is it me but a nation with close to 60 million people, why should our national anthem be dedicatred to an individual.

Can we have suggestions for a new one?

I like Rule Britania (not to PC) or Land of Hope and Glory.
