"Can we agree that our identity as citizens of this island is important. Being British is something to be happy about? " Depends where you are in the world. Living abroad for most of my life, I can say telling someone you're "English" goes over a lot better than if you say "British". There's plenty to be proud of this country for, but blanket being proud of being British is something I've never understood. (You could replace British with any nationality there). | |||

The Empire happened, many are affected by its legacy, however being afraid to identify as being British only makes you appear ashamed, even guilty. Our past did happen, and we must accept that we can only move forward and do better. That old empire is not the world we live in, it’s the here and now, where we are a diverse nation of many. | |||
