St George's Day
So who will be celebrating and how..Will anyone be going to Trafalger square in London?

Does anyone else find it strange that while every other country has its national day England seems to miss out..
What is it that we find so difficult to celebrate or is it because we are now ashamed that our national flag has been hijacked by soccer holigans and the far right?
There are celebrations up and down the country from London to Cheshire to Liverpool.. a lot are taking place on Saturady so why not go out and claim back a little Englishness untainted by soccer or the radical right...

Yes we should celebrate it, i know a few of our local pubs have their flags out and celebrate every year. And our neighbour will have his England flag flying after he's taken down the Yorkshire flag
Times have changed unfortunately, all the good times have gone forever...
