    Haha brilliant they finally somewhat backed down.

Cancel culture has gone too far but I think we proved that we still cherish our identity that was created through so much historical sacrifice

    The phrase well ordered- bounded- liberty springs to mind. And thus, where the Spirit of the Lord is, there, in that place, variously understood, immaterially, and materially, is liberty. Without boundaries, of virtue, of law, there is only license, and chaos, and liberty is lost, personally, and nationally. Inward liberty, from God, and made concrete by the practice of virtue, is the only way to have, and preserve, liberty. It cannot be done by law alone. Authoritarian imposition of virtue or order, by the left, or the right, or media outlets thereof, cannot accomplish liberty, but the opposite.We need to get back to basic definitions, or liberty, personal, and national, will be lost. Liberty is a uniqueness in history.

I'm now 75, VERY VERY proud of my British heritage. I'm returning in Nov/2023, & will visit the Church where my GREAT-Grandparents were married, & where the Grandparents I just mentioned were married. I know I'll cry, but I can't wait to get there.

    Throughout the war, the unique voice of Vera Lynn encouraged British and dominion troops, across the airwaves, to go the full mile for King and Country.

    For all of those poor wretches who gave this performance a thumbs down, we must pity their miserable existence. To not be moved by the glorious, melodious and soul-stirring sound of this beautiful singer is to be among the brain-dead who have never felt anything in the realm of deeply moving performances. Vera Lynn was a participant in a time requiring great courage, great stamina and an unflappable belief in Britain and its allies that they would defeat the great scourge of Nazism and everything evil that it stood for. Clearly the thumbs-down people have no understanding of what it meant in 1940 to be up against the kind of tyranny being rained down on the British Isles. As is often said, Winston Churchill had the lion's roar while the English people had the lion's heart. And Vera Lynn in this song and performance perfectly demonstrates the spirit of it all. So at last count, 1,665 people did love this piece and 51 did not. Of the latter, all we can believe is that they simply do not possess sufficient depth of feeling or understanding to know what this song is all about. Poor devils, living poor lives, with a poor appreciation for courage, and a complete inability to feel what it is like to be stirred by great performances.

I have never, since, been so ashamed of myself. My Dad was right. Needless to say I have never made fun of Vera since - and I never will.

    Love her voice--big mezzo with an easy top and low notes to burn. . She toured constantly during WWII--not just England but Burma, Egypt basically everywhere there were British Forces. Amazing person.

    I love how she knows to step back from the mic when she goes for the high notes, even with the full male chorus, she just soars over it. Without going into head voice… Remarkable talent. Thrilling song.

Wider still and wider shall thy bounds be set God, who made thee mighty, make thee mightier yet God, who made thee mighty, make thee mightier yet ..............
