Blackadder, Patriotism and the First World War: Michael Gove Repeats ‘The Old Lie’

Great post, I had read the Guardian’s article about Grove’s comment today over how certain people from the left are supposed to think, although his attacks seem to based on what the ordinary man in the street is supposed to feel. Most of these ‘uneducated’ men (working class) died in WW1 so I find Grove’s remarks a generalisation based on snobbery and an insult to the working class soldiers then and now.
