I do not understand the stereotype that every Englishman who sings GSTQ is a fat, beer swilling monster. I sing it with gusto and I couldn't be more opposite to that stereotype. If I recall, you are of Irish descent, but you won't find me criticising the bland, boring non-descript excuse of an Irish anthem. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Doesn't mean every England fan is drunk, overweight and sunburnt. In the same way that not every Frenchman is riding around on a bike with a stripey t-shirt, beret, and onions around their neck.

If I recall, you are of Irish descent, but you won't find me criticising the bland, boring non-descript excuse of an Irish anthem. The difference is that La Marseillaise is a stirring and passionate call to arms to defend the values of the French Republic from anyone who would impose their will on the French people. Our national anthem is, to quote the best description I've ever heard of it, "communal mumbling of a non-descript dirge in which we plead to a clearly indifferent God to prolong the existence of an old woman who lives in a castle." The national anthem is an area I really, really envy the French and I wish we had something as patriotic as they did that actually has something to say about England, our values and our people. Jerusalem would do the job. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

But being employed by HM, I suppose I would be. But I can see how the non royalists would disagree. If we were to change, Jerusalem would have to be it. wasn't there some sort of national anthem vote recently? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
