saw this on FB so it's highly likely to be incorrect or misinformed, but anyway:

Yes, old news. But now that they have been given the green light how many schools are flying the flag and singing the anthem? Interesting, don't you think.

Another Yank type thing, totally un-British in my opinion, we know we're great, we don't need to crow about it.

 

Happen they should concentrate on ensuring their pupils leave school (Primary and Secondary) literate and numerate...

 

What happens if (some arsey non-conformist :) ) little shit refuses to sing as they're an atheist non-monarchist? What if a pupil is of German extraction and will only sing Deutschland Uber Alles whilst Nazi saluting a swastika? The mind boggles.

Just spoke to my wife's cousin's daughter. She teaches in Brian, Texas. Her school do the pledge of allegiance in both English and Spanish and also recite the pledge to Texas.

It doesn't make their kids grow up into better or worse human beings than ours though I guess.

If your every visit her, you will have to come see me only about 1 1/4 to 1 1/2 away

Wife's cousin and his wife are both Bolton born and breed. Him from Bromley x her from Edgeworth. No idea where they socialise but they're Garry and Julie Mayoh.

I pass St Marys Primary School in Hawkshaw every day. They have the flag up. And is it fuck an American thing. This country was putting flags up outside, and on buildings before America was even invented.

we have a flag up at work and there's none of those bloody colony types at our place either.

I like to think of myself as a proud Englishman but flag waving is a bit fruity unless during world cups or euros or general footy games abroad. Saying that I pass hawkshaw a lot and the flag doesn't provoke an emotion either way for me. Edited by tomski
