Nothing wrong with celebrating St.Georges Day, or celebrating what it means to be English.
You can blame the "politically correct" for not wanting you to do it, but personally I blame the far right for stealing our national symbols for their own aims.
Perhaps it's time to steal them back.
St George was the first economic migrant anyway, we imported a foreign patron saint because there wasn't a suitable English one available at the time.

St. George is also the patron saint of Aragon, Canada, Catalonia, China, Ethiopia, Georgia, Greece, Montenegro, Palestine, Portugal, Russia, and Serbia, as well as the cities of Amersfoort, Beirut, Ferrara, Freiburg, Genoa, Ljubljana, and Moscow, as well as a wide range of professions, organisations and disease sufferers. I will celebrate by having a kebab as he was Turkish

Don't suppose anyone knows anywhere selling massive st george flags do they? They seem hard to get hold of since McClaren sent England down the pan...

Father from the area now known as Turkey, Mother from the area now known as Israel.
We have a truely multi-cultural Patron Saint.

In London village.
The Mayor of London is sponsoring big celebrations up here. Does that mean Ken is now un-PC or just that it is a term used by the terminally dull?

Primary data is fact
Our company will be giving everyone a day off on Tuesday 11th November - considerably more relevant than tomorrow I'd have thought?

Should be a public holiday but as it's not, I shall be going to work.
Nice idea - always makes me a bit sad when people just seem to ignore this at 11am. I assume it just means they are ignorant of the date/time and that it is not simply apathy.

"PC" is a catch-all term used by lazy, right-wingers who haven't got the intellect to argue a proper case.
When you ask them exactly who these PC people are, they will normally give you an answer that represents about 0.00001% of the population, yet they whine and moan as if it is a significant vocal minority whose views shape the way the country is run.
