Do you think it makes you more patriotic to close your eyes and stick your fingers in your ears and berate others for daring to question the decisions of the UK government?
It doesn't, it makes you for me less, as how we are perceived by the rest of the world should be something to be proud of... I'm not proud, every day I'm getting less proud.
The British are resilient, good humoured and fair... recent govts are not, they do not represent us.
We are power hungry bomb peddlers with our noses in the trough of war!
You can warble 'god save the queen' and wave your little flag, but without a degree of acknowledgement it's a total sham.

Sit there with my fingers in my ears, really, you do go off on a tangent. I question the UK government on many occasions and have pretty much detested some of our priministers i.e. Blair and Cameron and many of their policies over the years, like most, but it seems to me you are blaming May et al for Brexit when they are only doing what the the people wanted. They are therefore representing many of us, just not everyone - that's what public votes are about, you can't please everyone all of the time.
Let's get things in perspective shall we it's not the West that are the warmongers it's the Middle East - they are always at war with someone. There are times when the West have to intervene - whatever you personal reasons on why they do so. What's the point in having rules about the use of chemical weapons if, when abused, nothing is done - can you imagine what would happen if these idiots had nuclear power. Someone has to act. Are you happy for the world to stand by and do nothing when such atrocities are committed. Beggars belief.
Sounds to me that, despite your constant whining about the West doing little to help these countries, when it comes to them doing something you fear may actually affect you you sing a different tune. Let's just stand by with our fingers in our ears then shall we. Or is it because it's Trump that made that decision that you can't digest.
For the record I am not a supporter of royalty and have often questioned their value to Britain as a whole. I can see pros and cons but feel they get too much money and should pay their own way more - so once again more of your ridiculous assumptions.
