Stop BBC cancelling the lyrics to Land of Hope and Glory and Rule Britannia.
The British Govt is the custodian of British heritage and as such should intervene to prevent any attempt to dilute our heritage. The BBC are indicating they will omit the lyrics to Land of Hope and Glory also Rule Britannia at the Last Night of the Proms.
Please advise the BBC to stop such attempts at diluting proud British songs celebrating our history.
