Real England

I pointed out that this was not in the National interest and therefore might be considered treasonable

fucking right, send all pub landlords (inc al murray, perhaps even especially al murray) to the tower of london to await their fate imo

btw since he didn't mention which specific celebrations he's referring to i'm assuming he's talking about the whitby goth weekend here

xp that fate being to spend a couple hours in the company of lamer tourists and loud parties of schoolchildren before visiting an overpriced gift shop

celebrating the first anniversary of man utd winning the fa cup semi final with a last minute winner against Everton, resulting in a meaty punch up in the pub I watched the game in with my brother in law

meaty punch up in the pub

real england

it certainly was

I must be a terrible England-hating loony leftie since I had to look up the significance of 23rd of April lol

Hitler's birthday IIRC

Shakespeare's birthday, innit.

Do these count:

old stuff isn't real

tfw you have to banter a bit w/the guys who are fixing the old leaky gutters in yr block before they start work -- this is hackney so of course they are friendly and lovely essexmen, basically apologetic for being a bit late, which it turns out is because of… THE UNIONS!

banter now slips sideways into the eternal baffled animus of the self-employed towards the power of collective bargaining: "the drivers are paid so much!"

i want to say "yes, southern shd be re-nationalised, along with the rest of the railways, its current owners and managers removed, shamed and where appropriate jailed: vote corbyn!" -- but of course i also want the gutters to be done well and quickly (as they serve the whole block and the leaks currently inconvenience others much more than me), so i smile blandly and nod along

had u exhausted talking about the football

*sings along*

it's tempting to believe that that song really captures the feeling of being a tory

think it might be the b-side to this old school banger:

Best Real Britain of 2017 so far!

http://www.telegraph.co.uk/news/2017/06/11/mayor-andy-burnham-condemns-manchester-protest-against-islamist/

A few members of the crowd brandished a pig's head - a taunt to Muslims who do not eat pork - and took turns taking bites out of it.

nothing says you're a valuable member of a civilised society like patiently waiting your turn to gnaw on a pig's head in the street

Future Prime Ministers do more than bite pig's heads though amiriteHIGNFY?

just one of the many overlaps between the edl and the tories tbh

wouldn't sausages have been easier?

thx for the mental image of a young and eager david cameron pleasuring himself with a sausage

possibly while an exhausted and detumescent boris johnson, misted in a sticky spray of meat juices, looks on approvingly

just found out that in 1672 the dutch ATE their then-prime minister, johan de witt (along with his brother), in a protest against incompetence

they were likely encouraged in this act of politically symbolic cannibalism by william prince of orange. this belongs in the REAL ENGLAND thread bcz 16 years later the english hired william prince of orange to be our king william-and-mary, and shortly after this unleashed the curse of orange on ireland

somewhere out there there's a parallel world where the orange order's tradition is eating the rich instead of bowler hats, sashes and the least rousing marching bands ever

yet more evidence that we're living in the darkest timeline

having said that they're not rousing, i should give the bastards credit for unfailingly managing to wake me up on pleasant summer saturday mornings when they march past my house

scares the shit out of the cats, too

"Any delay in the Queen’s speech would be difficult to accommodate, given the monarch is scheduled to attend Royal Ascot from next Tuesday until the end of next week."

It's actually called The Winker’s Song (Misprint), get it right.

By Ivor Biggun, who went on to present vegetables that looked a bit * like body parts for four years on That's Life under his "real" name Doc Cox.

* if you squinted and had really bad eyesight and a desire to find absolutely everything hilarious

Burger van owner prosecuted after going on anti-Islamic rant and refusing to serve a sausage sandwich

It was quickly clear the two men had opposing opinions and when Mr Gardiner produced some laminated anti-Islamic literature from beneath his sauce bottles, Mr Palmer refused to read them.
