Rule, Britannia is ‘alienating’ to others, Labour’s culture spokeswoman claims after musician says the anthem could be replaced with British folk music
UK Daily Mail | March 4, 2024 | Harriet LineTo many, it is a stirring patriotic anthem conjuring up images of Britain’s long and proud history.
But Rule, Britannia! can feel ‘alienating’ to others, according to Labour culture spokesman Thangam Debbonaire.
They’ll be coming after the “Star Spangled Banner” next — after they get up off their knees, of course.
Whoa, whoa, whoa… BRITISH folk music?! That’s racist!!!!
Thangam? I hardly touched him!
Wouldn’t British folk music be more, I don’t know, white maleish and offensive to the new populace?
We are phasing out our national anthem, why else sing the Black National Anthem before games otherwise?
I happen to like the sound of Rule Brittania so Mr. DaBoner can go cry in the quiet room..never met him but I do not like the cut of his jib…
