Busy, busy, busy

So, how’s your St Georges weekend been so far?  Ours has been busy (not to mention expensive) and it’s not over yet! Yesterday Mrs Sane and I went to my sisters’ pub for a 3 course St Georges Day lunch.  The garlic mushrooms with tomato and goats cheese probably weren’t very English (although garlic was [...]

CEP: What are you doing for St Georges Day?

CEP: What are you doing for St Georges Day? St Georges Day 2010 is almost upon us (it’s Friday, in case you didn’t know) and we’re interested in what you’re planning to do to mark the day. It was St Georges Day that first led me to discover the Campaign for an English Parliament all [...]

How’s your St Georges Day been?

I’ve had a great St Georges Day.  I took the day off work – as I do every year – and had a busy day. This morning I went and got my hair cut and saw lots of English flags on cars and houses and people wearing Cross of St George lapel badges. I went [...]

Telford won’t be marking St Georges Day

Telford & Wrekin have confirmed that they will not be marking St Georges Day again this year.

Who’s celebrating St George?

I’m off to the pub shortly for a St Georges Day drink with a colleague, I’ve taken the day off work and we’re having a BBQ later. The Monty Python’s Spamalot the Musical is attempting to break the world record for the largest coconut orchestra in the world. Staff at Lion Insulation in Kent have [...]

BBC St Georges Day poll

There is a poll on the BBC News website asking if St Geroges Day should be a public holiday or not. The poll currently stands at 85.78% in favour with 4,994 votes. However, it wouldn’t be the BBC without a bit of anti-English bias – despite 4,280 votes in favour of a St Georges Day public holiday, out [...]

Maybe this will help?

Seeing as how St George is under threat once again from the sandals and socks brigade, perhaps this might help … Our patron, who art in England, St George be thy name, thy kingdom come, England will become, devolved as it is in Scotland. Give us this day a hospital bed, and forgive those who discriminate [...]

Littlejohn tells it how it is

An bunch of god-botherers and navel-gazing, beared, lentil eating, hemp wearing lefty liberal apologists have decided that St George is just too offensive and needs to be reinvented so that he’s more inclusive. A report called “When The Saints Go Marching Out: Redefining St George For A New Era” says: “It is time that St George [...]

More pointless laws proposed

Britains most senior muslim police officer (someone actually has a league table?), Assistant Commissioner Tarique Ghaffur, has submitted plans to the Attorney General, Lord Goldsmith, to make flag burning a crime. This is to help the police deal with violent protests apparently.  I thought waving burning rags in a crowd of people was something the [...]

St George or Shakespeare?

Patricia Hewitt and John Reid have suggested that England should have a national Shakespeare day just like North Britain‘s Burns Night. They’ve suggested April 23rd as a suitable date which, coincidently, is the date of St Georges Day. So, if the British government are happy to have April 23rd as a special occassion to celebrate [...]
