It's a shame as a nation we don't celebrate it more.

The Government need to ban the NF from using the Cross of St George as their emblem, A lot of people are put off with displaying this flag as others will assume they support the racist scum.

This is for Grandad,
I cannot see the point of bringing this up on St George's day, it's inappropriate, we are celebrating St George's day, why bring politics into it, and who are these others who may assume anything, who cares what they may or may not assume.
I have my St George's Flag on a Flag Pole all year round, in my back garden, which admittedly is a few acres. I am not put off and neither are thousands upon thousands upon thousands of others who follow England in all sports.
So I don't buy that, although there may be a timid minority who may do, but the race card is a tool of the intellectually weak and lazy, when they cannot counter a logical argument or factual data.
Who cares about what these so called some people assume.

you got a royal baby on st georges day wooly. just hope they dont call it arfa  :022:

As George has already been taken. Perhaps they may decide on Woolly.

With the name George already allocated in the family it is a Shame it wasn't born on Shrove  Tuesday - that might have seen Wooly's joke  come true God Save King Pancake

If you mean Arthur, that's Welsh anyway!

It's the bookies favourite.

Brexit rules that out Woolly as Arthur often said that " his word was his Eurobond "

I'm in Rio de Janeiro at the moment.
Believe it or not this is a State wide holiday here.
Everyone is off work and there are  flags of St George are everywhere. There are even Church's devoted to St George with statues of him on a horse killing a dragon.
Funny it's almost forbidden in the UK to mark the day without being labelled as a racist

Well I have had a happy St George's Day, and I shall look forward to next years St George's Day.
In the meantime my St George's Flag will stay up on its poll fluttering in the breeze for another 12 months 🏴󠁧󠁢󠁥󠁮󠁧󠁿
