Well said, Annie. A global perspective. 
One interesting thing though. There is a choice of three globe emojis showing the world from different viewpoints, and I just couldnāt bring myself to pick any other than the one with the UK on it. Draw from that what you will. 
Born British, English father, Scottish mother, went European 30 odd years ago, married a Portuguese princess, multicultural London is our home.
We have no plans to fight anyone.
I am loyal to my family first and country of birth second. I was born in London during WWII but I would never return to London because the London of 1943 and itās people no longer exists.
My wife has dual nationality and considers herself British despite still having family in Sweden and our children are British.
Are we patriotic? To me thatās an old fashioned concept and I would class us as supporters rather than patriates.
Iām loyal to V first and foremost, then the Black Country where I was borne and raised, finally England.
