The post you are reporting:
some of you will have already seen this but I thought I would put it on the forum any way, sums up a lot of feelings I think.

Goodbye to my England, so long my old friend
Your days are numbered, being brought to an end
To be Scottish,Irish or Welsh thats fine
But don't say your English, thats way out of line.
The French and the Germans they 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 your 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
They 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, Arnem 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, lets all be proud
Stand up and be counted - Shout it out loud
Lets tell our Government and Brussels too
We're pround of our heritage and the Red, White and Blue
Fly the flag of St George or the Union Jack
Let the world know - WE WANT OUR ENGLAND BACK!!!!!
