WE WANT OUR ENGLAND BACK
Goodbye to my England, so long my old friend
Your days are numbered, being brought to an end
To be Scottish, Irish or Welsh that's fine
But don't say you're English, that's way out of line.
The French and the Germans may call themselves such
So may Norwegians, the Swedes and the Dutch
You can say you are Russian or maybe a Dane
But don't say you're English ever again.
At Broadcasting House the word is taboo
In Brussels it's scrapped, in Parliament too
Even schools are affected, staff do as they're told
They must not teach children about England of old.
Writers like Shakespeare, Milton and Shaw
The pupils don't learn about them anymore
How about Agincourt, Hastings , Arnhem or Mons ?
When England lost hosts of her very brave sons.
We are not Europeans, how can we be?
Europe is miles away over the sea
We're the English from England, let's all be proud
Stand up and be counted - Shout it out loud !
Let's tell our Government and Brussels too
We're proud of our heritage and the Red, White and Blue
Fly the flag of Saint George or the Union Jack
Let the world know - WE WANT OUR ENGLAND BACK !!!!
Have a great Easter everyone!!!

This isn't a new ode anyway, I;ve seen it several times before. Of course we are Europeans, we have always been Europeans, we are within the continent of Europe. Look at the map. EU is a different matter as far as Governmental interference is concerned.
Tell the people in our local schools who are running Stuart and Roman weekends this holiday for our school-kids that they don't teach that any more... the more I read it, the more it is really very much an out of date sentiment.

You can have Agincourt though there were three units of Welsh Archers in Henry's army, Arnhem we collectivley lost with the Poles and Market Graden as a wholewith the Yanks, Canucks, and the Free French, Mons a collection of "pals battalions" from all over the UK making up infantry regiments, Hastings a collection of Saxons and Vikings fighting the people who MADE England, the Normans.
The Union FLAG (only a jack when flown at sea) is the collective flag of England, Scotland, Wales and Northern Ireland.
If nothing else you poem shows that we "the British" are simply a collective of anglicised b@st@rds from various tribes. None of us have a real identity because it's been hammered out of us all over the centuries to be Britain.
