There is far to much moaning in this thread, perhaps you should all move abroad.

Why?

I like living here, thanks. Just because I am not 'proud to be English' doesn't mean I want to leave nor that I should.

I'm proud that many of our systems and innovations have been adopted by other countries, such as our legal and financial systems, and language in particular. Hopefully in some small way we have made a difference in the world.

However that can be accreditted to being British as much as being English.

Most of the things that make me proud to be English are from our past. It seems our last real sense of pride comes from WW2.

There is very little about modern england that makes me proud. We're a country afraid to celebrate our nationality, slowly being overcome by benifit sucking yobs.

With the average size of the typical english family declining all that will be left for this country will be the those on the dole and large ethnic families that continue to thrive.

England is no longer the great nation it used to be, and has slowly been taken down from the inside for years.

Where do you see england in 2 or 3 generations time? I see a very different population.

Run along now.

Places like Cambridge.
Us being smaller in size but better overall than many countries.
Our history.
Military sucesses.
Used to own everything in the world.
Our language is one of the most widely spoken(although not very well in some cases ;) ).
Football and Rugby.
The people that fought and died for our freedom in wars.
Our patron saint slayed a dragon etc.

:)

The best thing about being English is watching the football, drinking lager by the gallon and then kicking off and smashing the place up!!!

Football & Rugby about it.

then the fact our country is turning into a **** hole etc :rolleyes: I'm just finding it an unpleasant place to live. Increasing crime, the whole "we dnt give" society, the 99.9% chance of getting stabbed to death when walking down alleys at night, the fact that you work DAMN hard and then find it all going to the appaulingly awful government, which in turn is then given as £15 billion donations to Africa and the rest. There are things called charities Brown! /Optimist :D

If I had the choice between New Zealand and here :rolleyes:

It can't be anything physical if that's a picture of you in your signature, no offence:)

I think that you need to learn to take Penski with a pinch of salt. Improves the flavour, na'am sayin'?

To answer the original question, nothing makes me proud to be English. I'm proud of my own achievements, not those of my ancestors, and certainly not of the achievements of people I just happen to have been born in the same country as.
