Could British Compassion Lead To Cultural Suicide?

[anotheoldgit]

I know many ABer's thoughts regarding Katie Hopkins, but please before condemning her, read the whole of her article, and then state your views, I think you might have a different view towards her, if not as a person, but on this subject.

AOG, I don't know KH as a person. I'm sure she's not the one she wishes to portray in her newspaper articles, which make her a wage.

Her portrayal of the terrible conditions inside the jungle are at odds with her 'don't let them in' stance. She's deliberately creating a juxtaposition of emotions which stirs up the general DM readership. Can you not see what she's doing?

I don't know how old you are, so I don't know how long you have become accustomed to the type of British Culture that is obviously prevalent today.

But I have many years knowledge of what we once classed as British Culture and it is a great deal different to what it is classed as now.

All thanks (I don't think) to politicians of all the three main parties, since the end of WW2, who have in some way almost made us feel ashamed of being British, along with it's culture, heritage and traditions.

Maybe not this Government, but you can be sure a Labour Government would.

AOG, there was an excellent opportunity to celebrate being British a couple of weeks ago but you decried it as a waste of money

You really are a dichotomy of values aren't you?

What traditions and heritage have the British people lost then AOG?

That was not a celebration of being British it was an event for personal achievement and recognition, plus a money making opportunity for sponsors, and in turn a complete waste of money that could have been better spent on more deserving causes.

Now 'Last Night of the Proms' a completely different matter, although infiltrated by those poor losers waving the EU flag.

I thought it was nice to see a variety of flags - after all there was a variety of music wasn't there?

[chelle7272]

No, my opinion has not changed. The subject makes no difference, she is a vile publicity hungry person and will use whatever means to get herself in the news.
I have no interest in anything she has to say.
Your question is vague though, are you really asking our opinions of her or is this your usual agenda?

[Zacs-Master]

AOG 15:12. Thanks for proving my point.

[THEMOTLEY1]

Fair play to you chelle, having a closed mind saves a lot of argument in the long run.

Yes, and I was told that our own ethnics where not interested in classical music, hence the reason they don't support such a typical British traditional event.

[Zacs-Master]

'Our own ethnics'. Holy moly.

[chelle7272]

THEMOTLEY - thanks :)

[Islay]

AOG can I have a response to my question please?

[Mamyalynne]

Not sure what side road you've taken , thought you were talking about the EU flag?

Shall I go out and come in again?

[chelle7272]

[Mamyalynne]

Chelle.........I know- makes you wince a bit that term doesn't it.

[Islay]

Is that all you can come up with Talbot? I am sure there must be reams and reams of our lost traditions to get AOG worried and upset!
