The late Dame Vera Lynn's version of this great patriotic song has reached number 1 on ITunes! It's time the BBC realised they do not speak for the British people.
Haha brilliant they finally somewhat backed down. Still changed the damn lyrics and blamed the British public for creating the controversy despite it simply being a matter of us not wanting them to ban our heritage. Cancel culture has gone too far but I think we proved that we still cherish our identity that was created through so much historical sacrifice
Here! Here! To the mighty-est PATRIOT of GREAT BRITAIN, the Commonwealth and old Empire.A true DARLING of the armed forces and citizens alike. May GOD Grant her ETERNAL rest.
Nobody will ever ban this Great British national song. My father fought in East Afikia and then Burma in the second world war for my and your freedom dont forget that.These people want to take away our British heritage. Over my dead body will anybody do that. Rule Britiania
Well said ! They can try and distort the past and attempt to influence the future,but you cannot change something that has already happened.We are what we now are because of the sacrifices made by our Fathers (like yours) who gained much comfort and support from these Great Songs. What is so wrong with carrying on this great British Tradition ? How dare they try and ban them !!
"Fought in East Africa and Burma ...for my and your freedom". In East Africa and Burma? Really? The Germans defended their freedom at the Hindokush lately as their minister of defense said years ago. Now they are home. German freedom lost?
I cancelled my TV licence direct debit yesterday. I want an explanation from everyone who hasn't. Australians got rid of their TV licence by mass refusal to pay. Google for 'Australian TV licence mass refusal to pay' to see. Why can we not do the same here in the UK?

The phrase well ordered- bounded- liberty springs to mind. And thus, where the Spirit of the Lord is, there, in that place, variously understood, immaterially, and materially, is liberty. Without boundaries, of virtue, of law, there is only license, and chaos, and liberty is lost, personally, and nationally. Inward liberty, from God, and made concrete by the practice of virtue, is the only way to have, and preserve, liberty. It cannot be done by law alone. Authoritarian imposition of virtue or order, by the left, or the right, or media outlets thereof, cannot accomplish liberty, but the opposite.We need to get back to basic definitions, or liberty, personal, and national, will be lost. Liberty is a uniqueness in history.

tears rolling down my cheeks, bless her heart and all she did for 'the boys'. I know she kept the spirits of those at home strong and proud too as my parents who lived through it all said to me. Thank you Vera.
When I see what is happening to my beloved country i feel like weeping. This song stirs a feeling of national pride I haven’t felt for a long time. Our parents fought for this land we owe it to them not to surrender it to the those who would destroy their values.
