Re: Britain/British day...

We hold a Remembrance Day for just that purpose, “Remembrance” and within that Remembrance we pay Homage and Respect to those who gave everything in order that we might be free. Please don’t anyone make the mistake of thinking that in our Remembrance we celebrate and honour British Victory’s over our oppressor’s, because without the many and varied nationalities, races and religions that served with and at the side of the British they wouldn’t have been any.

British Day? Celebrating what exactly? Holding a specific British Day will pander to the BNP and act as rallying call. We can’t even hold Celebrations of our 18th & 19th century Victories without causing some arse offence.

I think that we should reinstate many of our older more traditional holidays like Royal Oak and the like. But if you want a day that reflects what we are and Celebrates our Nationality then have a Union Day that take into account the four Nationalities of the United Kingdom.
