The English question: What is the nation's identity?Very well put, Andy, and I totally agree. As far as Brexit is concerned, a big problem is that many people under the age of, say, 45, seem to be unaware that we haven't always been in the EU and that before we joined, we were actually a pretty successful nation. My own son and daughter are in that age group and, like may of their contemporaries, don't actually read much, preferring to rely on social media and other, brief, online sources of news for all their information, so they have no extended perspective of the contribution and effectiveness of politicians and other prominent and influential members of our society. They don't know who are the good and bad guys, so voting, for example, is based on a very brief, often inaccurate, impression. I find it difficult to convince any of that age group that leaving the EU has huge potential for Britain.ViewDate:
