Europe would be a very different place if England once again became its own, independent country. Everyone would be quickly reminded that the English are the descendants of Germanic raiders and Vikings.

In 2012 a survey carried out by the think tank British Future as part of a report into how people around the UK viewed their national identity, revealed almost a quarter *** (24%) of the English said they considered their flag to be racist***, compared to just 10% of Scots and 7% of Welsh. https://www.theweek.co.uk/94358/why-is-the-st-george-s-flag-controversial-and-is-it-legal-to-fly-it

Love it! My great granddad was born in the north of England!
(I have to note that I’m MOSTLY of Polish descent, but I’m proud of the small bit of Brit as well!)

Lovely. I am 1/16 English, but my ancestors came from the eastern part of England, Lincolshire.

I watched a bit of the clip of the parade.
Next year, they should get a marching band.
