To listen to people talk, it seems we have turned into a nation of wimpy, whinging apologists.

''I'm so embarrassed''
''I'm so ashamed''
''I'm full of despair''
''I'm so sorry''
''My life is ruined'
''Please accept my apologies''

Stop bloody whinging and saying sorry.
How do you think this tail between the legs cowed talk makes us look to the rest of the world? Hmm
It's about time we all grew up, put on a united front and got on with things
Show everybody what we're really made of.



and breathe

You're right.

It was only a football match.

Can you outline this exact nature of this getting on with things? A few more specifics and less cliches would help.

Whose plan are we following? Is there a plan?

STFU.

We've ended up in a situation that we can't do a fucking thing to change, right now and whhat the hell are the people who are supposed to be in charge doing? Squabbling amongst themselves, that's what.

Are we not allowed to be upset and angry?

Why are you annoyed? Just accept how we feel and get on eh?

Hi STFU,

I hate the way we are known as whinging poms.

Why prove them right, by the constant whinging.
And no I'm not talking about the football.
But I suppose it could also apply to that.

You obviously have no idea if the enormity of the situation. To be honest I'm rather envious of your naivety.

What are you taking about? You don't say what you want people to stop saying I'm so sorry, my life is ruined for

Please don't let this be about the referendum, will all these threads ever stop. These is too many and they all end in bun fights

Unite? UNITE?

I don't want to, ta very much. I've had part of my identity removed, I've had to reassure and comfort distraught colleagues, I've dried tears and cried many of my own.

So no. Not now.

Exactly beetroot.

Moaning about it isn't going to change things for the better.

What will do harm is if the rest of the world sees us all bickering with each other.
It may sound old fashioned, but I think a bit of British stoicism wouldn't go amiss.
We need to appear strong. The last thing we need to do is show signs of weakness.

And winging IS a negative emotion. It's weak.
