hope and glory 

British slang term given to the twenty pound note. Taken from "Land of Hope and Glory", the composer of which, Sir Edward Elgar, is depicted on the back of the note. Also, since it is worth a lot of honk, gives the owner 'hope and glory'.

What's that you've got there in your paddle? A hope and glory?! You're giving a hope and glory for that service?

land of hope and glory 

better than the shithole you live in.

Land of Hope and Glory,
Mother of the Free,
How shall we extol thee,
Who are born of thee?
Wider still and wider
Shall thy bounds be set;
God, who made thee mighty,
Make thee mightier yet.
