An Acceptable Face of English Nationalism

Contrary to popular belief I am not anti-English; and I am prepared to give credit where credit is due. I had a comment on this post today from someone who called himself David (the Acceptable Face of English Nationalism) and I am sure that he will not mind me drawing attention to his comment:-

David Says:

Now I am in a quandry!! I was looking for some information on English Nationalism, because I am starting to beleive the time is coming for the English to have their own Parliament. I won’t bore you with the why’s, but I find myself sympathetic with your views on most of what I have read. Are these guys just born again BNP members or what?

I don’t care what the colour of your skin is, I don’t care what your religion is, if you are a UK Citizen residing in England and contributing to your community, then your OK by me. It is a wonderful country and is sadly knocked from within and with out the Union by people who should know better.

The real point is that I beleive that unless it is combatted, the English will find them selves divided by regional assemblies and never able to express their nationalism is a united voice.
The present governments plans have taken a knock, but have not gone away.

The Lothian Question is not one that is going to go away. Things need to be set right. Our neighbours need to quietly realise that the only country in the union that is a net contributor is England. The clear inference is that it is English working men and womens tax money that helps the other nations live in the style they have become accustomed to. So please, let’s have less of the English bashing. In the end it is going to be counterproductive.

Now whilst I do not agree with everything he says (but I agree with most of it) he makes his point in a very calm and reasoned way without any of the anti-Scot’s/anti-Welsh invective so often highlighted here. It is about time that more people like this came forward and put those who are so hell bent on promoting their hypocritical, racist message well and truly in their place.
