Civics needs to be taught in schools

Our young, I’m including myself here at the age of 43, have been taught to dispise our nation. To feel ashamed of our flag and nationhood. I am not willing to be ashamed. On my fathers side we invaded as part of the Norman conquest and went and married a lady in Cumbria. That means (when following her line) that I probably share a couple of relations in common with Saint Patric in the 3rd century. I want to rejoice at that. The current PM calls me far right if I do.
Civics classes should be introduced in school to tackle this lack of patriotism. We should celebrate the 1500 Navy seamen who died rescuing slaves from the American and European slave trade., we should celebrate the fact that we have no archaeological evidence for a Saxon war, rather it looks like we just bread them into who we are. This is why we have Sikh, Hindu, Jewish and Buddhist patriots. It’s because being British is a celebration.
We need to be taught what our civil, legal and patriotic duties are and we need to celebrate that we have the history that we do and that we have been for decades if not centuries, one of the most liberal nations on planet earth. No I’m not talking about the Hillary Clinton and Kier Starmer forms of liberalism, I’m talking William Wallace style FREEDOM!!! You are so British… lets try that again.
No I’m not talking about Lib Dem Labour forms of liberal wokeist impositions, I mean William Wallace style FREEDOM!!!
That’s better, it feels good to let that out. I’m as British as the Lake district and can prove it. I am so proud of that, it guides my every move. It informs my morrels it enhances my religious values it improves the choices that I make when deciding to be a gentleman or not.
Why wasn’t I taught that at school. It works well in the USA among other countries.

I am older than you and I AM proud to be British, even though the “elites” are trying to brainwash us into feeling ashamed. It is partly due to the rubbish that is broadcast on television and that is mainly due to having so many woke people working in TV stations.

In school, if the history of our nation was taught in a non-woke way, and if our children learnt about all of our scientific inventions over the years, as well as about our ideals of freedom and respect for others, that would do a lot to correct all the shame and negativity.

I brought 5 children up and none of them are woke. None of them were exposed to the BBC or other MSM stations as they were growing up. Instead, I encouraged them to use the Internet for information- this included many informative history channels. I also taught them about traditional Christian values - our country and its laws are based on these, like it or not!
