Don't have a solid view on this either way. I'm just posting to try and push the thread onto the second page for @Miquel The Work Geordie

Fair enough. Sorry if I come over as a little cranky. I feel like I'm constantly told 'woke' either doesn't really exist or is something totally benign, when at the same time I see it used to describe developments I believe are very negative. 

Woke is essentially political correctness, but not driven by the PC brigade but rather social media. Like political correctness it is essentially the right thing to do or say, but people also tend to push back when they are being told what to say, that then creates a more extreme reaction from the woke folk. Like political correctness it is also ripe for ridicule and prone to absurdity, see OP.

These days you get arrested and thrown in jail if you say you're English.

Coventry or Luton will be playing in the Premier League next season. Still seems unreal

I've filled in many on-line forms where I have declared myself English/British.

 

I've been summarily beaten by the political police several times on my own driveway. I still insist on declaring my nationality.

 

Those feckers won't ever get the better of me. I'm British, after all and I have a stiff (and often swollen) upper lip.
