“There’ll Always Be An England”

As Vera Lynn sang:

Surely you're proud,
shout it aloud.

Alas, Britain no longer has anything of which to be proud. Because of post-war actions and policies, it ended up giving back its victories in both World War I and World War II.

It used to be said that the sun never sets on the British Empire.

Now it is said that the sun never sets on the British Welfare State.
