Our English culture and the very idea of being English are under attack!

We believe it’s time we started reclaiming much of what has been taken from us over recent years.

The English have been subjected to a constant and deliberate policy of deculturalisation. One of the results of this is that many people no longer associate Englishness with a unique history, sense of humour and way-of-life.Since our earliest times we have valued freedom, politeness, and fair play but today many people only associate Englishness with two World Wars, one World Cup and a diluted Christianity. But aren’t we so much more than that?! Being proud of who we are shouldn’t be seen as a threat to any other nation or community. In fact it is us - the English - who currently feel threatened! We need to regain our history and identity from the roots upwards. With our community confident in its identity and with a renewed sense of nationhood, we will help others gain a better understanding of who we are.
