Englishness

“Englishness, in my view, is not about nostalgia for a lost England that never really existed in the first place, it is about a respect for long-established institutions - the Church, the monarchy, Parliament and the judiciary - and the national character which created and maintained these and which manifests itself in tolerance, consistency and common sense.” Martin Townsend How sad it is that at least one of these institutions - and I will leave you to decide which - is fast losing that respect!
