It makes us different, true, but different in a backwards way. When the president of the US or another country comes to visit, who is he first greeted by? The PM? No... The queen <_<; who has no power to discuss the matters and is actually just wasting time that could be being used to make decisions to save lives.
It doesn't bring tears to my eyes except tears of anger and frustration. And I can't stand extreme national pride - we're no better than anyone else.
You know who had extreme national pride? The NAZIS.
... go figure -_-;
I dont think we need any more racism here. We already have football fans for that department thanks very much.
All that British pride will do is make us more proud to be separated from other parts of the world. Even now ethnic minority sects in major cities are not intergrating with the main British public. You think they're happy to be British and have this queen who does nothing for them besides make pretty speeches?
These people are British to, some born here. They have to be intergrated and the royal family is a door to a past way of thinking that cannot actively encourage what needs to be done without sounding contradictory.
