What is Britishness?

Britishness? Alas its dead,
Battered, bruised, its lost its head.
Our colonisation spawned evolution,
All given away by devolution.

The Scots, the Irish and the Welsh
All now think they can rule themselves.
Without a thought they left the clan,
But wont accept a coffers ban.

A United Kingdom we are no more,
Even our language is all but done for.
We can't take pride in our historical might,
Even our flag is kept from sight.

Our Britishness is now in dilution,
But political correctness is not the solution.
I fear for our nation as a whole,
Simply because there is no goal.
