'One Britain, One Nation'

[HarryVegas]

The Department of Education have declared that this Friday 25th June is apparently 'One Britain, One Nation' Day, when schools are being encouraged to celebrate British values. Sound fair enough, yes?

This is from One Britain, One Nation's website:

"OBON aims to give a new impetus for the creation of a harmonised society, to make Britain an international model of moral rectitude."

That's right, moral rectitude.

**coughs** Hitler Youth

Ein Volk! Ein Reich!

 

[HarryVegas]

To add to the effect, the song they're pushing repeats the phrase 'Strong Britain, Great Nation' over and over.

Nothing to worry about here...

 

[Muttley]

Somebody should have that shoved up their moral rectitude, right up it.

....One leader, and together we will march to the end of the earth!

Absolutely. Strong echoes of Springtime For Hitler!

It will be a vote winner, especially up north

Looks to have been going since 2013. I've never heard of it before and why are the Dept. of Ed. getting involved?

They've done so well organising it that Scottish schools start their summer holidays on Thursday.
Only Alexander de feffel and Gavin could have done that.

I think I borrowed it from ' The Odessa file'

 

[Trug]

I find it frightening- reminiscent of1930's Germany

 

[Scrote]

That flag is upside down.

Doesn't that mean someone is in distress?

Maybe it's the people who've been forced to record that drivel...

The Habsburgs tried this in 1916. It didn't end well.
