I believe the kind of nationalism that would work and appeal to the wider British public is the ideologically inclusive kind that incorporates the aristocratic and masculine virtues of Courage, Honour and Reason rather than the racially exclusive kind through which the worst of proletarian and feminine vices of cowardice, hypocrisy, short-termism, irrationality and promiscuity are currently being manifested.
THE VOICE OF REASON Solon, (born c. 630 BCE—died c. 560 BCE), Athenian statesman, known as one of the Seven Wise Men of Greece (the others were Chilon of Sparta, Thales of Miletus, Bias of Priene, Cleobulus of Lindos, Pittacus of Mytilene, and Periander of Corinth). Solon ended exclusive aristocratic control of the government, substituted a system of control by the wealthy, and introduced a new and more humane law code. He was also a noted poet.
