Monday

Today is St Georges day, the patron saint of England, you'd think he was the patron saint of STD's or leper colonies the way we approach it here! Recently when it was St Patricks day there were all kind of events going on and tri-colours all over the place, today I counted TWO houses flying the cross of St George! Everybody is afraid to be patriotic in case they are branded as racist. We need to take our flag back from the BNP and the football hooligans and be proud to be English.
It's hard to be English, it seems that, for whatever reason almost every other country hates us and to hide our embarrassment we are losing our identity. You know we don't even have a national anthem we use the British anthem (God save the Queen)! We need to have a pride in our heritage and be proud to say we are English! On the 23rd of April next year every house should fly the cross of St George! Hooray to St George!!

I am naturalised British, does this mean I am or am not not English? Confused...
