We would be nothing without each other, we are a huge part of each others national identity and history and we will not stand idly by while terrorists attack. It was the same after 9/11 with the American National anthem playing in London and Paris and all around the world!
@@Morgsy- I wasn’t talking about the content of the video. The cringey comment above tries to make out that there’s a deeper connection between the UK and France that brings us closer together. I’m quite cynically saying that this sort of mumbo jumbo is nonsense and it all boils down to geopolitics, not some nonsensical semi-devine sense of camaraderie.
Over my about to be 26 years if life, I have seen countless things. From the 9/11 attacks, to the Paris bombings, and many other events, I have stood and watched those countries with sadness. I still remember that Friday. I did not have the luck of being there, but I was watching the video in German. I stood up, right hand over my heart, and too the best of my ability, sang La Marseille. To my French brothers, though our history is bitter, our future is sweet.
If there is one country that will always have France's back, it's us from the United Kingdom, we've had a long journey together, 100s of years of history together, and now we are best friends! We love you and always will, we support you and you are our brothers! Vive la France!!!
there was a point in time where almost every french and English king went to war, and now they are like the best of allies and the people of the two nation are like one nation people.
Sorry, but every time I hear "Le Marseillaise" I weep. So powerful. The best national anthem. I also hear, after the conclusion.. "This cafe is to be closed at once!" "But I have no reason to close it." "Find one." (blows whistle) "This cafe is to be closed at once. I'm shocked! Shocked to discover gambling going on here!" "Your winnings, sir." "Thank you, very much." Vive La France!
The solidarity that we showed to the French back then makes me proud to be British. What makes me rather less proud to be British is the fact that if Charlie Hebdo was a British publication based in London then those journalists would not have been murdered, they would have been arrested. The Charlie Hebdo cartoons are illegal in this country as the UK is not a free country, unlike France.
Disgusting that the 130 innocent victims of the Paris attacks get a token minute of silence on a single occasion, yet a violent career criminal, unlawfully killed in the USA gets 1 minutes silence every time a football match is played in England. That is up to 36 minutes every single week and it has been going on for months now.
This is what it should all be about. Not stupid identity politics that has entered are whole system. We should all be proud of where we come from and each countries separate cultures. God Save the Queen and La Marseillaise, The French people deserve so much more that the left wing idiot that runs it now.

The Brits and French love to make jokes at each other, but if one of us takes a punch the other is ALWAYS there to back them up
Like siblings. Friendly banter, until someone messes with either of them.
That was horrifyingly cringey to read. It’s simple geopolitics, nothing more.

Sound of 45,000 Anglos mangling the French anthem in their best Franglais. Still gets 10/10 for effort, emotion and friendship. Vive la France.
Franglais truly is a blessing and a curse. Wondeful wee thing, especially in WW1.
franglais? it’s franks

My favorite part, second to the national anthem was when the players took their shirt off.
