Agreed,, I don't like our anthem either ,,said as much on another thread,,,, but I would still sing it,,cos I'm patriotic and its still our anthem...   New one should be land of hope and glory

couldn't agree more! sort of puts the two fingers up at all the people who fought and lost theirs lives for our country. wanker should be tried for treason not be head of a political party.

Jmvho , but bullying people ,football players and yes ,even opposition leaders into singing this miserable ,antiquated dirge praying for the well being of one family is all a bit much , The national

So what if its not a particularly good song since when did we stop doing traditional English stuff just because its not much fun....whats next April Fools,St Georges Day,Remembrance sunday,anyone for cricket !.....we,re being robbed of our culture every day dont give it up voluntarily for f**k sake !

Well I rather like it. Any body that thinks I'm a hypocrite as an atheist can f**k off. Culture draws from many outdated ways of thinking, yet we hold on to it for the sake of preserving our identity. I don't smile to Thor every time I hear thunder, but I still call the 5th day of the week Thursday! Our culture is full of these idiosyncrasies!

 

If however we were talking about a English national anthem I'd go for Jerusalem.
