So long my old friend

Your days are numbered, being brought to an end

To be Scottish, Irish or Welsh that's fine

But don't say you're English, that's way out of line.

The French and the Germans may call themselves such

So may Norwegians, the Swedes and the Dutch

You can say you are Russian or maybe a Dane

But don't say you're English ever again.

At Broadcasting House the word is taboo

In Brussels it's scrapped, in Parliament too

Even schools are affected. Staff do as they're told

The y must not teach children about England of old.

Writers like Shakespeare, Milton and Shaw

The pupils don't learn about them anymore

How about Agincourt, Hastings , Arnhem or Mons ?

When England lost hosts of her very brave sons.

We are not Europeans, how can we be?

Europe is miles away, over the sea

We're the English from England , let's all be proud

Stand up and be counted - Shout it out loud!

Let's tell our Government and Brussels too

We're proud of our heritage and the Red, White and Blue

Fly the flag of Saint George or the Union Jack

Let the world know - WE WANT OUR ENGLAND BACK !!!!

The thing about not wearing England shirts into pubs is a made-up story I'm afraid, one that the Sun has seemingly helped promote/. It's a load of rubbish, albeit rubbish that seems to have spawned 1000 Facebook groups (not dissimilar to the "Facebook is going to start charging after [random date]" groups - similarly made-up nonsense).

My dads mate had to take down a saltire he had in his garden.

The council were apparently worried about it "inciting racism"... even the Americans are allowed to fly their own flag in their own gardens...

I would like to tell those politically correct types in the council to :cursing: off

I can understand the request on football shirts, mostly - rival team fans can kick off (as anyone in Glasgow can tell you), but for the likes of the world cup the vast vast majority of fans in the pub will all be supporting the same team... As the article says their advice wasn't meant to apply to England shirts, they probably just meant the league teams etc

The Swedish national anthem was recently banned from all Swedish schools. You can no longer sing it, or write it. If you do you're a racist, apparently.
