The British now put England's Carnivals under attack

After cancelling their St. George’s Day Parade in April we now find out that Walsall council have cancelled a parade of floats at the traditional Bloxwich Carnival. An event dating back 60 years that attracts over 5000 visitors will have its parade cancelled because the council say the organisers can’t afford the £2000 for the new Health and Safety regulations they have put on them. Carnival chairman Ken Worley said the regulations were “barmy”, this is a repeat of the same thing done to the organisers of the carnival in Wombourne South Staffs. What is it with these councillors, and in whose name and interests are they serving by discriminating against our English heritage and traditions, and what is it and on whose authority is it that lets them treat one section of the English population different to how they treat the rest.
Only recently we saw Wolverhampton Council inviting thousands of Wolves fans to a screening of the cup presentation in West Park, but not telling them that they had slyly arranged for Traffic Wardens to come round after the event had started to slap £70 parking fines on any cars parked on the grass verge and streets around the park. This did not happen on the following Sunday when the park held a Vaisakhi celebration and cars where parked in the same areas, then no Traffic Wardens appeared. According to the Express and Star, when asked for an explanation on Monday, Alistair Merrick the council’s chief officer with responsibility for parking enforcement said “Parking services were not aware of the Vaisakhi event in West Park yesterday and clearly this is a mistake”. His statement has to be questionable because the event had been planned for and advertised for months including and up to the Saturday night prior, and may have been believable if it had happened at the Wolves event which was hastily planned.
Following the disgraceful treatment of England’s St.George’s Day by some of our local councils these latest actions should be expected and in no way helps to unite what is becoming a divided nation.

We must not forget that it is the British that are denying England its political recognition, the British MPs we have sent to parliament to represent England, it is these who are to blame. Until we have our own English MPs not British MPs representing England nothing is going to change.
