Does the spirit of the blitz live on?

It is the 70th anniversary of the blitz. How has the national spirit changed since then?

September marks the 70th anniversary of the onset of the blitz - a German bombing campaign that continued until May 1941.

During WWII the German airforce bombed industrial and civilian centres in England and thousands died after weeks of consecutive raids.

No, the population's morals, ethics and general behaviour has deteriorated since the 70's. We no longer care what happens to our neighbours, locked up behind our doors caring only for personal wealth and wellbeing.
If anything the thin veneer of civilisation has become thinner.
We are only a stones throw "quite literally sometimes" from a howling mob.


I copied this part from that article as I believe it to be true.People are to wrapped up in their own lives to give a sh*t about wether their neighbours are alive let alone need help.Children are starve or beaten to death and "nobody" realised it was happening..YER! I don't remember the war but have watched and read plenty and really can't see people helping each other or even coping like they did.I hope we never have another war,but if we do i hope I'm wrong in this.

everyone cared about their neighbours in those days and everyone was proud of their country..don'thave that now..clydebank was bombed too and my grandmother moved from there incase it happened again..came south to the countryside
