Gammons outraged over last night of the proms betrayal

[BlasterBates]

May I suggest the term "gammon face" instead of gammon, to make it clear it isn't a race thing.

This is a more politically correct term.

When you get your way and we have left the EU, should all music that comes from EU countries be banned to?

What like Israel and Wagner?

ok lets go with feckwits for remoaners that most definitely is not racist as it doesn't describe skin tone.

Not all remainers are feckwits but all remoaners are!

sorted.

You cannot take a physical attribute and assume because someone has that physical attribute that they will act in a certain way.

It's called racial stereotyping and it is racist.

Also shall i got to Germany and when they play the german national anthem or other german 'nationalistic' songs I should wave the Union Jack?

Or would seem people see that as inflammatory and maybe doing it just for attention?

And how about if a fully dress up in the other nations colours?

like this?

What double standards?
The Proms are about music, a lot of the music played at the Proms is not by English composers. Much of it is by Austrian, French, German and Italian composers.
So, unless your intention is to ban all music written by people from EU countries, then you're going to have to get used to the fact that Bach, Beethoven, Holst, Wagner, Mozart, etc, were not English.

And yes, I'm saying English, not British.
Jerusalem is a poem/song about England (about wanting England to be like a middle eastern city) . Land of Hope and Glory is a song about England. And the Wail/Express are aimed at grumpy English men whose blood pressure gets raised by anything that paints foreigners in a good light.

In what way do think Blake meant this?

His words, not mine:

"Till we have built Jerusalem
In England's green and pleasant land"

Jerusalem being what is regarded as the birthplace/home of Christianity?

Given(what is now regarded as) the myth that Jesus once walked on English soil?

Recognising allegory isn't your strongest attribute, is it?
