It's almost St George's Day

[My Boy Harry]

Always the same on here

Loathsome liberals who hate their own country. Might be advised to piss off and live elsewhere if everywhere else is so much better than England

 

[vinegar hill]

Well I suppose it could also be a celebration of the greatest literary
figure in history.

England is great.

Nobody thinks Saint George's Day is actually racist apart from some righties who love being the victim.

Only self-loathing here is you and your miserable life. You're like a really shit stuck record.

Can non church goers Celebrate a saints day?

The ones sharing the "SGD is racist, it's not fair" bile generally share anti Muslim sentiment on Facebook. I assume they have a keen interest in religion.

Like's been said, I don't think most of the English feel the need to celebrate it, contrary to what some say, we're not that nationalistic.

i'll be driving round Eden Vale with the speakers in my Corsa 1.2 at full blast

 

[cluffy]

Basically Xmas for baldy fat racists

 

[Cú Chulainn]

Aren't they all dead? Might be hard to tell them.
Canny WUM thread this, to get the more self loathing among us frothing about what won't be said about St George's day being racist. You've gotta laugh.
I don't know anybody who celebrates St George's day. I don't think the English bother in the way the Scots and Irish do. Probably because the English don't have a massive identity complex. They don't need to tell the world they're English and get pissed doing it. It's much more low key.
If you do celebrate the English day that's great have a good time and don't worry about any knackers, particularly on here looking down at you for doing it. Enjoy.

Class quote in a thread of English people arguing among themselves about the values of a national day and the rights and wrongs of their fallen empire.

All the Anti-St.George brigade, are scoffing, thinking "but JK Rowling is Scottish"

 

[Pepe]

Might as well get this out of the way before the non-event.

Has anyone ever actually claimed it's racist apart from those who claim others have said as much?
I've never seen anyone claim it's racist apart from the righties frothing about nowt on FaceyGram.

It's a shame we don't have a drink as marketable as Guinness.

Enjoy whatever you're up to. I'll be doing about as much as I did for any other saints day in recent years.
Cheers.

On the subject of Guinness, wasn't it founded by an Englishman?

Or did I dream that.

I shall be having a few beers, probably London pride to remind me of the great days when our capital city was British

Er... How old are you? Londoners were just as cosmopolitan and diverse 2,000 years ago as they are today

 

[phillips10]

Love my country me. So proud to have Saxon heritage.

Nobody’s stopping you.

I've taken the day off (because my birthday is the day before).

How old will you be this year? Just asking like.
