Now is the moment for patriotism and confidence in British identity, the product of a glorious past

As the decade draws to a close, Britain has got its mojo back. In the election less than three weeks ago, we snatched victory from the jaws of self-defeat and the annihilation of our identity. Just like Disraeli, Churchill, and Thatcher before him, Boris Johnson stands now at the helm of this great nation, ready to steer it towards a new age of unity and prosperity.

For too long, Islington intellectuals, heirs of Karl Marx, have poisoned every cup of knowledge with their culture wars. For them, to be British is to be ashamed and meek, head hanging low with guilt. Imperialism, colonialism, and racism became the heritage and hallmarks of Britishness. Students at university are taught by Leftist professors that Britain is to be blamed for every conflict, past, present and future. Corbynism found a home in the sewage pipes of Twitter and Facebook because our graduates have been fed this diet of hatred.

Meanwhile, Momentum activists mobilised for class war. To them, identity is about sexuality, race, ethnicity, gender, religion – not patriotism and the content of our character. In this war against the “white, pale, stale male”, our soldiers are murderers and our history is nothing but stories of “dead, white men”. Britain has only one role in this world view: constantly to say sorry for its existence. To its proponents, Britain is the cause of all that is wrong in the world.
