What’s telling is that the “your generation wouldn’t last a minute in a war” brigade, can’t last ten weeks in a non conflict.

The chances are their parents did live through the war, but were under ten. They’re also the “in my day we bought our first house for £20k” brigade. Who sold the suburbs off for half a mil+. Boomers gonna boom.

Eating takeaways twice a week but hating foreigners, moaning about technology but spending all their spare time posting holiday cottage competitions on Facebook. Driving a Toyota but supporting British manufacturing. Voting Tory but don’t talk about politics.

The English. A nation of selfish idiots, who stole their national drink, sold out their future generations, lost in semi finals but always won the moral victory. Taxes the poor but exempts the wealthy. Doesn’t own a train set as a nation but has a train set room in the basement.

Claps for a health service it doesn’t fund. Hates the Scottish but claims it’s Wimbledon champion. Has elected the worst character from any Hugh Grant movie to run its nation and sneers at the American president. Cuts off the map but expects to retire in Europe.

You reap what you sow and this stupid little island gone and sown lot of false hope. But at least the weathers nice for 3 days.

Time to get the chainsaw out at 7am and crank up the Shania Twain amirite?

Imagine feeling proud to be from a country as unremarkable as this.
