Respect

There is little respect around today.
Clothes and things are easy come easy go – always chasing the latest gadget, game, pair of jeans.  Photos never seem to be cherished anymore.

Yeh – times move on, they have to.  But a respect for others should always be the same.  Nowadays kids know more about their legal rights than about their times tables and how to construct a sentence.  Good old fashioned values need to Keep Britain Great.  A please, thank you….. aren’t hard to day.  Why does everyone expect everything to easily land in their lap.  No one seems to hold people in authority with any admiration – teachers, police, firemen, parents.

This easy come easy go, give me want I want now is imploding upon itself and it is very, very ugly.

Come on – let’s leave the nanny state behind and Make Britain Great!

Celebrate!

We have such a land rich in history and steeped in tradition.  But we’re losing our identity.  Over the past week we have an Halloween and Guy Fawkes night.  But which do we now acknowledge? 

Guy Fawkes born in York (13 April 1570 – 31 January 1606), belonged to a group of provincial English Catholics who planned the failed Gunpowder Plot of 1605 which has since been celebrated by fireworks.  Halloween a pagan festival popularised by American culture has sidelined this important part of our history.
