As we are having our nation identity eroded by the p.c brigade, shouldn't we celebrate our patron saints day with the same fever that St Patricks day gets |

I've only ever hear English people complain that if you celebrate St George's day you'll be considered racist. Here in Wales we celebrate St David's day and the general opinion of people down here we think it's weird that England doesn't make the same fuss.
Celebrate your day, nobody think it's racist. Happy st George's day |

Who are the PC brigade and how are they eroding our national identity? |

Happy St Georges day for yesterday from someone from northern Ireland.
Where i live St Patrick day used to be considered as racist as one side of the community seemed to hijack it.
There has been a change where both sides started going to celebrate which is great.
Is there a marking chance to sell St Georges day cards? Lol |

Purely for practical reasons I am against this holiday as we already have Easter, mayday and whitsun and yet another holiday at this time of year when potentially the weather is more likely to be crap isn't it just is a bit silly. It would be better to have it at end of July or beginning of august. |

We could have a St Swithins day on the 14th July and all stand around praying it doesn't rain and fuck up the next 40 days when the kids are all off school. |

Oh for fucks sake get over it already, if people wanted to celebrate St George's day they would, but no, the good people of England use it as an excuse to piss and fucking moan.
And as for this horse shit about being scared of being called racist, in the 70s and 80s the national front used our nations flag as a symbol of clear racist intent, so blame them for using the flag of our once great nation and turning it into something not to be proud of like in other countries but a symbol of hate, THATS offensive.
Don't start to preach to me when I attended a St George's day parade in sandwell a few years ago and was disapointed to find d*unk skinheads swearing and using offensive language in front of my six year old daughter, you lose all claim to the high ground when a child hears an adult shouting "send the fuckers back" send them back? They have been saying that for years and now they want em arrested as soon as they get any where near Syria and shipped back for trial
Upshot is, I would love a St George's day Holliday, a day to celebrate ALL English people, a day when we can get up from our sish furniture, get in our German cars, go to a place twinned with a place in France, drink some Belgian beer, go have an Indian or Greek or Chinese meal then lock up the car and be driven home by a cheerful bloke from Pakistan to laugh our heads off at an Irish cross dresser or a couple of Irish priests.
I fucking love being English, but for fuck sake, the world owes us nothing, we have no empire, 1966 was a long time ago, and we no longer rule the waves, but we have potential. |
