Dear British Broadcasting Corporation,

Has the Producer, 2011 Last Night of the Proms, received
instructions in respect of the "Britons" implication

The BBC, being presumed to have issued instructions, advised that
British People should be used rather than Britons.

Rule Britannia will feature" British People never never.... in
place of "Britons never never"?

Yours faithfully, Maggie Ess
