I’m no nationalist, I certainly do not believe we should be leaving the European Union but that doesn’t stop me from weeping for our beautiful country; Great Britain. The UK is feeling a bit beat up at the moment. Watching politicians night after night going at each others throats and using language that is only creating division in our country is a sad thing to see. It paints a bad picture of us all around the world and puts a shadow over what is one of the most amazing countries in the world.
It took me a long time to recognise what this Island country of ours has to offer. I have travelled all over the world but hardly anywhere in the UK. It has been only recently I have stood in wonder at this countries incredible landscapes, its rich countryside and coastline, its beautiful rivers and canals, its amazing crazy, colourful people, its capacity to make us laugh, cry and fight for what we believe in. This country has incredible festivals, incredible music and art, country fayres, markets, boot sales and nightlife like no other. I was born in Great Britain, my best friends live in Britain and I have had some amazing times in Britain. Take a step back and think of all the amazing times you have had in this country. Our country is unique, eccentric and wonderful and sometimes we forget that.
