The Last Straw


God protect us from politicians...

The world-famous Red Arrows have been banned from appearing at the 2012 London Olympics because they are deemed to be
'too British'

Organisers of the event say that the Arrows military background might be 'offensive' to other countries taking part in the Games. The display team have performed at more than 4000 events worldwide, but the Department of Culture, Media and Sport have deemed the display team 'too militaristically British.' Red Arrows pilots were said to be 'outraged', as they had hoped to put on a truly world class display for the Games, something which had never been seen before. Being axed from a British-based event for being 'too British' is an insult - the Red Arrows are a symbol of the greatness of Britain, past, present and future.

The Red Arrows have been excellent ambassadors for British overseas trade, as they display their British-built Hawk aircraft and their British Bulldog daring all over the world.

The Arrows performed a short flypast in 2005 when the winning bid was announced, but their flypast at the Games was to have been truly spectacular.

It is to be hoped that common sense will prevail but not unless you and your friends and associates help.
Tens of thousands of bristish Citizens signed a petition to the Prime Minister because they disagree with this unbelievably stupid decision, so

Let's now see e-petitions make a difference

Please also let everyone you know know about this final straw, this nail in the coffin of our heritage

Thanks, and see you at the Games but I am now only going if the Red Arrows are there

* Nothing personal, but only British Citizens can petition the British Prime Monster ~
