Go to an air show and the hairs stand on the back of your neck - best of all they make the French look like amateurs. Why would anyone want to exclude this of all things in show casing Britain ? Forget the petition. When will people realise what the likes of me and Peter Hitchens have been banging on about for years ? This country is in the midst of a coup by people who hate us and everything we stand for. The most impressive display team I have EVER seen.

But team spokesman Rachel Huxford said: "We have had no discussions about the opening ceremony of the 2012 London Olympics whatsoever. "We are still planning our 2008 season at this stage and that is a long way off. "We understand that no decision has yet been made about the ceremony. "We performed when London won its Olympic bid in 2005 after we received a standard request from the Olympic organisers."
