With our country seemingly under ever greater attack from our cultural elites, a day to remember the remarkable achievements of this beautiful isle, and how the progression of time has enabled us to create a set of values and ideals that are worth defending. We're not perfect, but actually when you look around the world, we're really not that bad. Happy St George's Day!
Happy St George’s Day everyone. For me, I’ll celebrate my 58th birthday with my partner and my son. Have just sold my business so I don’t even have to get up for work today!

I am not religious at all. But if the other home nations can get a day off work, we, the English, should also.
I know that's woke of me to want to take some time off to celebrate being English, and I appreciate that many of you are capitalists who wish people to work for the ever-depreciating market rate while inflation burns them on the other end.
I respect that you won't be hypocrites and make an exception for St George's Day and pretend that it's all different and not woke just because it's St George's Day.

Remove St Georges day from the calendar and replace it with another Rainbow minority "day of visibility" - That's woke.
Granting additional weighting to the patron saint day of England does not meet the criteria for being woke, sorry. Application rejected.

I’m not going to say no to an extra bank holiday but it’s been celebrated for about 1100 years so not being a bank holiday probably isn’t because of that. I swear it was barely a thing 20 years or so ago.
Anyway hope everyone who did something had a nice day.
St George's Day was barely acknowledged when I was a kid back in the 70's and 80's, so it's not like there's been some drive to diminish it as an event; it's generally been a bit of a non-event in my experience. I think a lot of English people look at St Patrick's day and think we should make more of SGD, but my Irish mates reckon SPD was very low key for them as kids in 70's and 80's and has largely grown in scale at home in response to the fuss made of it in the US.
If you want to celebrate SGD then crack on - I genuinely have never met anyone who has a problem with people doing that. Maybe if I lived overseas it would be something I could get a bit more excited about, but I'm not exactly sure what I should be doing to celebrate SGD; what does it involve that I don't already do most days? Eat English food? Drink English beers? Listen to English music?
