When most of us were growing up we were taught to be proud of our country, so that meant following the national sports teams and supporting Britain in the Olympics. It also meant that if the IRA or muslim terrorist bombed any city in the UK we felt sad often anger but also a sense that we had all been attacked.
My youngest son who is 23 and most  of his generation but certainly not all a largely indifferent to what happens to other parts of Britain, they  have some interest in what has happened but no more connection than if it happened elsewhere in the world. If it doesn’t affect them  personally then its just another day in a crazy world.
Been taught to be proud of your country was glue that kept the country together and that is what used to make  us strong.

I believe it's inevitable erosion of one's identity eg British(ness) will happen if there is unchecked immigration or immigration dominated by an ethnic group non-conducive to its value, religion, custom and tradition even rule of law.

what is Britishness though ? a lot of what we have has come from overseas ... United Kingdom is how we address our country ,Britain (and the commonwealth) sounds very much from a bygone era  of steam trains and hop picking .

Geographically we are still Brits

I think anyone taking persona offence because of someone else's achievements or from the mere fact of having been born in a particular place because of it's history needs to assess their own life frankly.

Masambula was loved by wrestling fans and his trademark celebratory move was to do a headstand against the corner post.

He played notable matches against Jackie Pallo, Mick McManus and Adrian Street. After being 'posted' by Pete Roberts in 1975, he injured his back, ending his wrestling career. The pole was allegedly faulty and he successfully sued the promoters. Masambula died in March 2007.
