It's St George's which should be a national celebration. Yet nothing

Tell me you are a racist and will be voting for Reform without telling me you are a racist and will be voting for Reform.
What utter nonsense you write. 😂

I'm sure that post was sarcastic.

It falls depending on Easter. It can't fall within a holy period

eqpi4t2hbsnktd · 23/04/2025 14:00

Genuine question - is there something we are meant to do to celebrate? Like a Guinness and big green hat for St Patricks... Hot Cross buns for Easter..
TELL US WHAT WE DO!!!!!

This is what Google looks like for me today.... just saying.

Edit to say image hasn't worked!!

Annony331 · 23/04/2025 13:59

St George's day is next week

Ladamesansmerci · 23/04/2025 13:54

Is this really something people care about? It's not a National Celebration. I've never met a single person who cares about it.

I’m woke enough to know it’s not today.

You can’t even say you are English now, without being arrested.

I long for the days when Winston Churchill paraded about London with a bulldog dressed in a Union Jack Waistcoat..

You get arrested now for flying a Union Jack

Woke gone mad

You know that the UNION Jack isn’t English don’t you?

This is a brilliant post: got the day wrong, got the message wrong, but STILL OUTRAGED BECAUSE BRITISH IS BEST 😂

The absolute best exemplar of Faragism!

Exactly! It's hilarious really.
So many patriots with such a fragile sense of Englishness. Constantly looking for things to be offended about. I see them all over social media. Bunch of snowflakes!
And yes, I know OP is Irish but for some reason she's offended on behalf of the English.

There's a Happy St Georges day message on top of the BT Tower in London if that makes anyone feel better!

Sort of, Cappadocian (certainly not Turkish). But it isn’t unusual at all for countries to have patron Saints not of their own country’s origin. St George being the patron Saint of many countries for example. He’s also a very multi faith figure, so maybe not a bad choice of patron Saint for modern day England after all….

right...so will Britain celebrate with Cappadocian snacks and decorations? that would actually be interesting

I have never in my life seen an email or Teams message about St George's day.

Or st Patrick's day or any of the other ones either

It's been banned by the wokeism brigade. If they'd been in charge in 1945 we'd all be speaking German by now. LEST WE FORGET.

Google have a little whatsit with a knight and a dragon, they obviously missed the memo about next week too ...

But not on the actual day?

Show quote history

That might be just logistics of when Trafalgar Square was available. It's the marathon next weekend I think.
They often have festivals/events there that aren't on the actual day of that event.
Plus if it was today (not the date shifted for this year) it's Wednesday.
Big festivals generally happen on weekends.

What attitude?

I don't live in Wales. I'm also Irish so celebrate SPD.

Weird the country ignores it

Show quote history

If you’re Irish why are you worried about St George’s day??? Or if you’re that concerned start something yourself, I’m Welsh and couldn’t give two shits about st David’s day but my kid’s school go mad for it, maybe you could do a teams meeting where one of you dresses up as the dragon and the rest as St George

It's not woke that people aren't bothered about something that most have never been bothered about.

In fact I'd say it's the exact opposite of woke surely
