Britons never, never, never shall be slaves! (It looks like the UK is leaving the EU!)

Posted on 06/23/2016 7:58:02 PM PDT by naturalman1975

When Britain first, at heaven's command,
Arose from out the azure main,
Arose, arose from out the azure main,
This was the charter, the charter of the land,
And guardian angels sang this strain:

Rule Britannia!
Britannia rule the waves
Britons never, never, never shall be slaves.
Rule Britannia!
Britannia rule the waves.
Britons never, never, never shall be slaves.

The nations, not so blest as thee,
Must in their turn, to tyrants fall,
Must in their turn, to tyrants fall,
While thou shalt flourish, shalt flourish great and free,
The dread and envy of them all.

Rule Britannia!
Britannia rule the waves.
Britons never, never, never shall be slaves.
Rule Britannia!
Britannia rule the waves.

Britons never, never, never shall be slaves.

I’d respectfully ask the citizens to tar and feather Cameron.

This royal throne of kings, this sceptred isle
This earth of majesty, this seat of Mars
This other Eden, demi-paradise
This fortress built by Nature for herself
Against infection and the hand of war
This happy breed of men, this little world
This precious stone set in the silver sea
Which serves it in the office of a wall
Or as a moat defensive to a house
Against the envy of less happier lands...
This blessed plot, this earth, this realm, this England

(William Shakespeare, "King Richard II", Act 2. Scene1)

Well, KC, I’m happy to say I called it wrong tonight. I can only say that so did Farage earlier in the night.

Sky News just called it for "Leave"

I am sure you are looking forward to hearing from your Commonwealth and British Friends.

I’m sure I’ll be getting some pretty soon. It’s tomorrow in Oz and around 9am (considering state) and 9pm here (subtract 12 and add a day - from Seattle).

Things like the EU telling the Brits the shape of cucumbers that can be exported within the EU finally got to them.

My first thought was so much for the ‘they can take our lives, but they’ll never take our freedom!’ people.

I totally agree. Didn’t mean to crap in the punchbowl with that comment, just point out that dumping the EU is a first step on a long path away from the nanny state. Bad timing on my part. I’m quite pleased to see it happen and hope the best for Britain. With luck this will spur many of the undesirables to emigrate.

Historic! Congratulations to my British cousins, you have taken back your country!

We have the same sentiment here, and Trump personifies it.

“Dang, early on there I was pretty depressed.”

Me, too! Last night I had even commented that for years Britain had been on life support, and that it now looked like it was pulling the plug. Then I wake this morning to this wonderful news!

Congratulations to my British cousins!

A beautiful song; some say it is Britain’s unofficial national anthem; and some say “I Vow to Thee, My Country” is the unofficial national anthem. Personally, I prefer the latter.
