Notice also the manipulation of expectations - "we will (do/not do)" means they have the power, they rule you. In the US (I also think we're powerless) we usually hear something like "I do not support {} / I will fight for {}" - the extra verb indicates uncertainty, which is less powerful. So the little commoner people in the UK are being trained into an expectation of powerlessness.
