St George’s Day 13:47 - Apr 23 with 4133 viewsjonesy

Believe it or not today is St Georges Day. The media seem to be keeping very quiet about it. Presumably so as not to upset our ethnic minorities! WTF!

Or perhaps they're focusing on the birth of the new royal baby.

These days, you get arrested and thrown in jail if you say you're English, don't you?

They need the money they'd spend on St Georges Day to pay to immigrants and benefit claimants whilst us hard working white people are at work earning enough for everyone

What money would they spend on St George's Day? I may have missed any traditional celebrations because I'm not yet 40. However, I can't remember us ever doing anything to celebrate St George's Day.

The only thing I ever hear about the day, is people saying we can't celebrate it due to immigrants, foreigners and, presumably, straw men.

What are the media supposed to say: "It's St George's Day today and, as usual, no one's doing anything"?

I assumed the OP wasn't being serious and joined in the sarcasm along with ATP. Don't tell me he means it, surely?

Sorry Rod, I can never tell these days!

Ever year, there's at least one person who pipes up with the OP's post on something I read. If it is sarcasm, fair enough!

They are, because not many can see the point being made.

My feeble town Morley,Leeds West Yorkshire celebrate St George every year.
They put on a good show and will welcome any Lancastrians next year.
The local council is run by the Morley Independent party and this is why we have this event every year.

It annoys me how more people 'celebrate' St Paddy's day and use it as an excuse to get absolutely obliterated but they're both pointless and worthless to me tbh

Yes - an excuse for the Irish to get pissed and have a day off - not that they need one!

In the fifties and sixties St.Georges Day was celebrated on the closest Sunday by Scouts,Girl Guides,Boys Brigades,etc,with a parade through the town centre. But like the Whitsunday Parades it petered out,no doubt never to be seen again,so ultimately St.George is just about forgotten now,apart from the flag being used by England supporters at sporting events. The only reason why the Irish celebrate St.Patricks Day,the Scots celebrate St.Andrews Day and the Welsh celebrate St.Davids Day is really just about showing that they`re NOT English. So why do we not now celebrate that we are English,what the f*ck is wrong with that? It`s almost like we should be ashamed of being English,so how has it got to this?

You have just basically admitted that other countries celebrate their own patron saints for shitty reasons. English people are far to cool and laid back to get overexcited for Saint George’s day. Getting overexcited over tacky things isn’t in our national character. England is a big country that talks itself down we aren’t that insecure that we need to rally around a made up icon that killed a made up mythical creature.

There are still parades in the town centre by uniformed organisations on the Sunday closest to St Georges Day in Rochdale, Heywood & Middleton. Have a look on Rochdale Online
