Thank goodness you told us it was a joke or else we would never have known, what with it not being funny and all

Celebrating your national flag as I expect the Saesneg to do today is to be encouraged.

In your opinion to be encouraged, not in mine or the vast majority of us, we're just not that interested or insecure to be bothered with nationalistic jingoism

St Georges Day should be a bank holiday. We should all be proud to be English. But we don't celebrate it.
We should do what the Irish do. On St Patricks day, they go totally mad, a celebrate like mad.
But St Georges day - a damp Squid.
What the hell is wrong with this country. England is great country, with great people. But what we are scared of to celebrate it.
I know that one house where l live, had an England flag, but was told to take it down as it offended neighbours.
And this is not me causing trouble, we should be proud of our country.

Are they celebrating st Patricks day or using it as an excuse to get bladdered. I've heard stories about being asked to take flags down and most of them turn out to be bs
