Does Daniel think this has anything to do with Britishness ?
It's just Brown closing a flank that is exposed to the West Lothian question.Labour has lost Scotland for now and we might wake up to the fact that England, which does not have it's own Government, is run by people who's seats are in another country and call themselves,when convienient, Scots.
No doubt Daniel imagines that yesterdays headline about the troops ,underfunded by Brown,wearing their uniforms in public was to be taken at face value.The ban in Peterborough was a year ago and was resurected and trumpeted by Brown so he could lead all in praise of the people he has consistantly ignored.
One would expect journalists to display some of their legendary cynicism, especially when the "face"of these initiatives claims to have a moral compass.

How very true.
Personally I feel that any comments like 'one nation, indevisable, under god' etc etc is so much bs as regards the UK anyway; we are not one nation for a start, nor are we indevisable (last time I checked) and don't get me started on 'god' or in this case
gods seeing as we have so many diverse multicultural peoples scrounging here.
Yet more Nulab desperation I'm afraid.
