Site Supporter Winchester White Posted April 23, 2024 Site Supporter Posted April 23, 2024 St George is truly an international saint and England is not the only country or region to claim him as its patron. England shares St George with Venice, Genoa, Portugal, Ethiopia and Catalonia among others as their patron saint and many of these places have their own celebrations and ceremonies in his honour. WE CAN'T EVEN HAVE OUR OWN SAINT! Quote

As I say I'm draping myself in a st George's Cross as we speak to join in with the Stella drinking and windmilling at the police like a true Englishman. Celebrating what's best about our country. Your mask has slipped Stella is Belgian Quote
Site Supporter Tonge moor green jacket Posted April 23, 2024 Site Supporter Posted April 23, 2024 St Patrick wasn't born in Ireland. Yet no bugger seems bothered. Countries all over the world celebrate their nation/culture in all manner of ways, and are happy to do so. Only the usual progressive group-thinkers telling folk what they have to believe, how to think and to be anti-English as that's the only way to atone. I've not put a flag out, been to a party or done anything specific to the day, but it doesn't mean I look down on those that have. All the best to them. Quote
London Wanderer Posted April 23, 2024 Posted April 23, 2024 Patriots have had a lovely day in London. https://news.sky.com/story/amp/violence-breaks-out-at-st-georges-day-event-in-central-london-13121301 Quote
Sweep Posted April 23, 2024 Posted April 23, 2024 I must admit, I'm not really sure about them who've traveled over to Gibraltar to dress in chainmail like crusaders. That seems a bit odd. Still, they seem to be having a good time. Quote

Who’s telling you what to believe & how to be anti English? Might need a bit more detail with claims like that. Quote

I think folk who go out for St Patrick's day, end up getting leathered on Guinness whilst wearing those stupid hats are bellends They may be Irish, maybe (probably) not But they're still bell ends Quote
royal white Posted April 23, 2024 Author Posted April 23, 2024 Looks like there was a lot of that 2 tier policing going on today. Speaking of which I see Tommy Robinson, sorry Stephen Christoper Yaxley Lennon was aquitted today. The Met fucking up again. Quote

I get that, but why does our national day seem to involve daft cunts getting wankered and kicking off in London The Irish and Scotchers get wankered happily without trouble in the main. Quote

Won't be the case on the next pro-palestine march. Intelligence suggesting far-right/football hoolies would be in attendance, and has been policed accordingly. Fair enough. Yet when individuals with knows pro-terror sympathies get involved with hate marches, it seems that the commissioner is far less stringent. Quote

Does this happen on a regular basis on St George’s day in London? Quote

Nothing against people feeling proud & wanting to celebrate etc. I think we see it in a a more positive manner at events like the coronation etc. Events like this in London just put folk off, as does some of the historic behaviour of England fans at major tournaments. Tartan army & Irish fans have always had a better reputation abroad. Hopefully it will be decent at the Euros this year. Quote
MancWanderer Posted April 23, 2024 Posted April 23, 2024 Do the Scotchers and Welshies do anything to celebrate their National days? Or are they pretty much like the English and don’t do a great deal? I genuinely have no idea I love Paddy’s Day but never really took much notice of that until I married into a pikey family Quote

Shows pretty balanced policing to be fair. I’m sure that the majority on both were there peacefully 👍 Quote
