In a speech  “This sceptred Isle...This Happy Breed” to W.I.S.E. at the National Liberal Club in 1981 Sir Ronald Bell Q.C.,m.p, spoke of how we are again suffering under the "Presentment of Englishry. “ The very word discrimination itself has been grossly abused.  It used to be a good word: a discriminating person was someone to be admired.  People have been brainwashed into thinking that it is a bad word except when native inhabitants are being handicapped.  That is now called positive discrimination, and is deemed a good thing. 

We are well on the road back to “presentment of Englishry”, when in the days after the Norman Conquest that it was a defence to show that the injured person was only an Englishman.” (Sir Ronald Bell, QC.MP.)
