UK far right trouble

Our nation has always been patriotic, but not nationalist, there is a distinction and its important.

Also take in historical context then, we had the largest empire that has ever existed, does that makes us nationaists, no, but if does fuel patriotsm in an historical context. today for instance is Trafalgar day, when in 1805 our Admiral Nelson died on HMS victory whilst the fleet won a victory against the Spanish fleet.

I appreciate your perspective but nonetheless disagree. I was in Spain a few years back visiting my old bud, obviously like most ex pats he was hanging out with a bunch of Brits, the superiority complex they all had over the locals made me sick to my stomach. Not sure if this addresses what you’re saying but it was way more than patriotic, it was really embarrassing. Everyone of them thought they were Ronny Biggs, little bit norty but can’t talk about it nudge nudge, maybe I’m missing your point and have had too many beers but way beyond patriotism. Anyhoo, thanks for coming back and posting, always interested to read what you have to say

Orwell sums it up well as do you. I do think though that once life gets better for most then that right wing narrative will lose steam.
Trouble is I don’t see that happening any time soon

I trust the late Mr Lynch's are happy with the due respect being shown for his passing and are in for a decent cut of the merch sales...............

Good grief. It's saying something about the caustic nature of many of these threads in the Politics Forum, when @mackenzie, one of the most levelheaded and empathetic posters on Bluemoon has the 'islamophobic' card thrown at her.
I'd hope there's an apology forthcoming.
