I Am English

You should be...don't let others perceived reception of this great country(football hooligans,crappy politians) disturb you

Newton, Shakespeare, Turner, Hawkins, Crick, so many reasons to be proud of our heritage. Ignore the current issues is my advice

Why would you think that? Everyone is always going on and on about England on here, and how great British people are, yadda yadda. I would think you get sick of the compliments.

Don't let the bastards grind you down.

How sad.
