For English Independence
Recently I was
invited onto Hearts of Oak for a videoed debate on the pros and cons of
English Independence.
You can watch the
debate here >>>
Here is some of
what I could have said.
English or British?
In a sense the
question of which Nation we should belong to is not a purely rational one - on
either side of the divide.
It’s emotional.
It’s who do we
think we are?
It’s home is where
the heart is.
Personally I am
proud to be English. I am proud of
England.
England means
something to me, but Britain and the United Kingdom don’t and I am not alone.
2011 Census 60.4%
English only (including London!)
In England most
people with a history in England feel English.
British is what
people who are not English say that they are.
People who feel
strongly patriotic or nationalist, like those who voted for Brexit, care about
their country.
This is why 56% of
Brexit voters in a recent opinion poll support English Independence.
English
Independence would also get us out of the EU and all treaties entered into by
the British State so there is a potential to reshape our politics if we dissolved
the UK.
Then there are the
grievances against the way that the UK is run.
The British Political Establishment are increasingly politically correct
- partly as a strategy to do down the English.
They welcome mass immigration. They are all Internationalist and
Globalist Liberals.
They are
progressively destroying our country.
They want to break England up with bogus “Regions”. They want to build
all over it!
The British
Establishment have destroyed all our old English regiments in the army. They have configured our “Defence” forces for
foreign interventions and not for defending our country. We have got two vastly expensive aircraft
carriers which were built on Clyde-side both over budget and to a poor
standard, and all defence shipbuilding has been stripped out of England to help
subsidise Scotland in order to help buy Scottish votes for the Union. British politicians say that we need the
Union to “Punch above our weight on the world stage”.
Which brings me
onto the Barnett Formula. 2009 -
£49billion. £32billion for Scotland.
It is the English
that pay for the Barnett Formula.
Last year: Northern Ireland spent the most per head at
£11,590 followed by:-
·
Scotland at £11,247
·
Wales at £10,656
·
England at £9,296
It is also the
English assets that the British State has been busy asset stripping, selling
off freeholds for hospitals and mental health facilities and our historic court
buildings.
The British run MoD
has sold off so many of our bases that they now cannot bring our tank regiments
back from Germany as there is no- where left to house them!
Our systems are
already quite separate. Just look at the
differences of emphasis in the way in which the British Government has dealt
with its control over English Health Policy in comparison with that of the
Scottish Government (and Welsh and Northern Irish). This is just a reflection of the way that the
British Establishment manage the NHS against the interests of the English,
leading to us being the only UK Nation that has to pay for prescription
charges. All the others have their
prescription charges paid for – by us!
It is no exaggeration
to say that England is the last British Colony!
This has to end.
Let us demand
Home Rule for England.
We want our
country back!
The time is right for
English Independence!
