But it absolutely infuriates me that London has become so utterly detached from the rest of the country that to most young lads where I'm from the idea of living or working in London is completely unthinkable.

Gosh.. this brought tears to my eyes. Dame Vera Lynn sadly passed away today, 18th June 2020; we lost a national treasure. Just watching this video made me realise how truly free everyone must have felt on that day.. walking freely in the streets with no fear of being bombed, or an air raid siren going off. Having to rush to do what they needed to get back home ‘just in case’; it must have felt so freeing, especially for the younger generation, to say to their siblings, friends, partners.. ‘grab your coat! Let’s go!’ to join hoards of crowds to dance & celebrate until the small hours that they’re finally free of Hitlers clutches. Seeing those young women & men at the end made my heart swell. Those women likely waited all of the war for their men, crying, praying, begging for their safe return. Enjoying walking in the fountain with no cares in the world before embarking on the next stage of their lives. My father was born on May Day 1945, he sure knew how to make an entrance. My mother was born Jan 1946, & they both remember the ration books, the sense of community that continued post war, & patriotism; something not always experienced these days. Thank you for sharing 💕 x

I'm not even English, but I love this song so much. I can well imagine, how this beautiful anthem of hope gave people all the endurence and bravery they needed during England's darkest hours. When people were hiding in the bunkers and subway stations, while the Blitz was going on above them, during the long Blackouts and when food and basic supplies were rationed. I've seen some of the old black and white fotographs, that show civilians still smiling and making music while they were hiding underground, people continuing their everyday life like nothing ever happened, while everything around them was laid to waste. That's what I appreciate so much about the British: You never surrender and most important, you never loose your humor, even in the darkest times. People like Winston Churchill and Vera Lynn are the embodiment of that spirit. May she rest in peace. Nowadays, we all need that spirit again. And this song says it all: If you stand together, believe in your country and yourself, then you will withstand every crisis. So come what may, there'll always be an England! I hope this song still encourages you the same way it encourages me. Best wishes from Germany going out to all of you, my English friends!

we didnt its the forever guilty labour goverment.

[@syedhasanahmed3514]

ryan taylor No, it isn't to do with the Labour government, though that was one part of the issue. There has been a cultural revolution in the past 60 or so years within this country, with both the labour and conservative parties being transformed by it. It's impossible to claim that only the Labour party was infected with neo-progressive postmodernist rubbish - so has the so-called Conservative party. One of the main differences is that the labour party ended up purging itself of its socially conservative working class base at the parliamentary level, filling the parliamentary labour party with only champagne socialist types.

well the main populus decline issue is true reason that the main influx of immigration occurred during the blair era its sad the eu got the blame when 50% never came from europe but asia and africa but back to the highest immigration is during the labour government
