Postcard from Britain

In his poetic volume, Wanderings and Excursions, Ramsay MacDonald describes the “England of Romance”. He wrote, “I go onto the cliffs and see how well the blue sea and the white foam blend with the potato [coloured] field”. England, he claimed, was the “ideal land of exile”. Here, a person “may be free, may hear the echo and be heaved on the swell of every commotion disturbing the great world outside, and may enjoy all that Nature is pleased to provide for us”. 🏴󠁧󠁢󠁥󠁮󠁧󠁿🌳🏴󠁧󠁢󠁥󠁮󠁧󠁿🌳🏴󠁧󠁢󠁥󠁮󠁧󠁿
