Parsnip Posted June 23, 2021 Share Posted June 23, 2021 Absolutely buzzing for this! I hope you'll all be joining myself and my children on Friday celebrating the government backed OBON day? Here are the main lyrics to the song we're gonna be singing all day... [Chorus] We are Britain And we have one dream To unite all people In one great team We are Britain And we have one dream To unite all people In one great team [Outro] Strong Britain, Great Nation Strong Britain, Great Nation Strong Britain, Great Nation Strong Britain, Great Na-a-tion Get the bloody bunting out!

Laughably cheesy but reading the website and it's heart is in the right place I suppose Quote celebrate the values we share: tolerance, kindness, pride, respect, and a tremendous desire to help others. Today’s Britain boasts a wonderful array of cultures. It is our multicultural identity that makes Britain so unique Can we make a call to discuss it here using only tolerance, kindness and respect for each other views?

Good call. Otherwise Priti will have us executed. Stive Pesley, EtoileSportiveDeDerby and ariotofmyown 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
1of4 Posted June 24, 2021 Share Posted June 24, 2021 So if we are celebrating one Britain one nations. Does this mean the United Kingdom will no longer be the nation I am a citizen of? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
1of4 Posted June 24, 2021 Share Posted June 24, 2021 I've no longer got children of school age but I'm most concerned that my grandchildren are being coerced into singing this song. Whats next, having to salute a picture of our illustrious leader? ariotofmyown 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
1of4 Posted June 24, 2021 Share Posted June 24, 2021 Just noticed that a lot of schools in Scotland broke up today for their summer holiday. So with them and the school children in Northern Ireland, a country that isn't a part of Great Britain. There'll be a large number of the nation's kids not participating in the singing tomorrow. Not heard the song but can the Great Britain part be replaced with England without messing up the tune. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

BaaLocks Posted June 25, 2021 Share Posted June 25, 2021 Well, at least the whole thing won't get blown off course by the news that our Health Secretary is boffing his aide. Wait, breaking news just coming in. What? Stive Pesley 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Angry Ram Posted June 25, 2021 Share Posted June 25, 2021 (edited) Listened to the fella behind OBON on LBC yesterday, a Sikh fella from Bradford. Ex police inspector. Was a sound geezer and his heart is in the right place.. Nothing underlying here, just a naff song really. I think it was written by kids though.

I think you're right, but it does have the unfortunate side effect of looking like we're forming the Boris Youth. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
