Whether or not a leaked consultancy report on a rebrand for Labour becomes policy or not senior Labour figures seem to be wrapping themselves more in the Union Jack.

As Paul Gilroy’s book noted, there is no black in the Union Jack.

Still there are some things I think to be patriotic about and somethings which are definitely not worth any patriotic thought:

British cask beer: good

British farmhouse cheese: good

England & Wales cricket team: (probably) good

Imperialism and wars: no thanks.
