There must be lots of better choices one could make to celebrate the wonderful English nation?

For a lot of people, obviously not, else they wouldn't have posted it. :roll:

If you disagree then thats fine, you're choice. Best of luck.

TJ,

I don't think you need to argue with anyone (for a change). If you believe it is a British Icon then great, have fun. End of. Yawn.

Racing at Hopton for me.

Maybe stuff like this is why some people have a bit of a problem with English nationalism?

I think most people, including me, tend to ignore the tripe that those bunch of c***'s put out to be honest and not let it affect the pride we should so rightly have in our nation.

gonefishin, get a grip and stop being a dick, we're not talking about war.

Spitfire was designed by an english man for an english company
Harrier was designed by an english man for an english company
Eurofighter was designed by a bunch of english men working at a company in england :wink:

Designed by englishmen, built in england.

Its not a celebration of wars, its a celebrations of great english designs, designers, and engineering, something we should all be proud of as an engineering nation.

Mods, can we get the BNP tag at the top removed please
