Pride

I second Andrew's simple and direct comment. However most of the time I feel like a dynasaur for holding such a view, a voice in the wilderness so to speak, even a joke.

Nevertheless, I do feel that the younger generations should be properly informed (educated) about the Second World War, and even the Cold War, and what people sacrificed, fought and died for; and what they owe to such sacrices.

Now we have lost that ethos and are, as Andrews says, so busy throwing away all the freedoms and values which our forefathers rightly held dear.

Of course this government, in particular, has assaulted our freedoms, values and choices like no other democratic goverment before it, but we cannot turn back the clock. We must move on to 'a brave new world', one that would not seem entirely worthy of these sacrifices.
