Call it retribution for over three hundred years of British colonisation.
Can't wait to see the retribution your artificial nation and nationality will suffer for the ways you slaughtered the Aboriginals and stole their land. That will be a pleasure to see.
Funny you should say that my Roman friend, America doesn't seem to have an issue with the natives they stole land from why should they?
And saying yer English is a blanket statement, what kind of English are you? If yer name is pronounced with a fair amount of phlem....probably not english then.
Saxon? or Anglo? Norse? or Moor? Franco or Hessian?
I mean you are splitting hairs here, Im just wanting you to be more specific in doing so. Nothing wrong with national pride and all...it still has its uses.
Tá a fhios ya, ach ag rá
I'm the sort of English that isn't going to let a bitter little celt patronise me or my nationality, now get back under your bridge, bog trotter.

You hold a British Passport and I presume, were born on the Island of Great Britain, i.e. you are British, yes you may have been born in England, which is part of the Island of Great Britain, like i was born in Wales, but you are British, like I am, claiming you aren't because you don't want it to be does not make it so :-)

It was a huge mistake...
Oh neither in mine. Unless you are into every other culture apart from the culture of the country you are in.

More casual racism I see. You really are a nasty piece of work aren't you? EDL much, you don't reside in Luton per chance?

Anyway, multiculturalism hasn't worked because the parties involved haven't worked together. Quite frankly, we're all on this planet together, which ever corner of it we were born on should not stop us embracing others and their cultures too. Embrace and learn, don't ignore and demean. You'll be much happier I promise.

Unless you are Welsh or Scottish, where it is allowed to be Welsh and not British or Scottish and not British, right?
Well, you can shaft yourself. I come from England, not Britain. Don't like it? Too f*cking bad.

What is English/British culture? How do you define it? I've honestly never really got a good answer from anybody on this.

Of course you are allowed to be English, ffs, if anything Englishness is rammed down the throat of the rest of UK, especially when there is a footie match on:-). I don't know where you get you dellusions Laser Brain? It doesn't alter the fact you were born in Britain and are a British Citizen, the same as me, although I'm clearly not as angry as you.

Racism is such an overused word. Can't you think of something new? EDL comparisons are so 2009 darling.

I don't want to embrace other cultures. I want to embrace my own culture. I couldn't care less about foreign cultures. The only one here demeaning is you, but then what did you expect from a bitter, hypocritical leftist.

I know you'd like to patronise us futher, but there is a wikipedia article which you'll no doubt not read because it was never your intention to learn about our culture, just to mock us.

I didn't intend to seem patronising in anyway. I honestly would like to know what somebody who feels so strongly about preserving English culture, thinks english culture is. I will read the article.
Also who is this 'us' you are talking about? I'm English myself.

Nope, I wasn't, and I'm not. I was born in England, and I am English. Not British, or from Britain.
We are not the same, you are foreign to me.

You have a serious chip on your shoulder dude, and you are the one who seems bitter :-) If you don't want to embrace other cultures that's fine, no-one will stop you, but that doesn't mean you should try to stop others from doing so, Live and let live.
