I'm pretty proud of London, and I've only lived here for 11 years. Come to that, I'm pretty proud to live in hackney, and I've only been there for a year and a half!!
It's a bit harder to be proud of England, when so much of it sucks. But I think national pride (as in YAY ENGLAND, not the racist sort) is actually really important.
It's certainly a shame that you can't talk about national pride without having to add a qualifier in about it being not racist ir xenophobic.
