The main reason is that the government frown on it.....only because we may upset some of the ethnic minority ( who, dare I say seem to be the majority nowadays)

Happy St. George's Day.

Although I'd be happier still if we had a patron saint who was actually English, rather than a greasy Turk.

I think I'll start a campaign.

As well as being the patron saint of England, Portugal, Cyprus, Serbia, Bulgaria, Macedonia, and Moscow, amongst other places, he's also the patron saint of skin diseases, and syphilis.

Perhaps we should all be wearing a scab to celebrate today, rather than a rose.
