Max Power Posted January 7, 2022 Share Posted January 7, 2022 I think lots of unifying things have been wiped away in the name of multiculturalism, which is a huge mistake. People moving to Britain hopefully aspire to be British and partake in it's customs and traditions, like those moving to other countries? The USA is a prime example, despite being a mess. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Is the National Anthem (God Save the Queen) really unifying? It certainly is not my National Anthem. Anyway the BBC no longer shuts down at night so when exactly are they meant to do this? The guy is completely out of touch with the real world. 4 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Kind of interesting that you've made the leap to multi-culturism there. I'd be pretty confident most native British people could not give a shit about whether the National Anthem gets played on the BBC each day. In fact I would expect most would think that it's ridiculous. 3 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
