English flag has become a symbol of fascism , and now taken over by the BNP
England is supposed to be Cosmopolitan?
How would the English feel if all the people from different Nations flew their own flags on specific days in England??
England is starting to vote BNP, put up with it or kick them out and regain your pride in your flag!!

Im surprised we are allowed to put up any English flags these days just in case we offend anyone. The reason for no flags on St Georges day is that it is not advertised enough!! May be we should be given a public holiday then Im sure you will see many flags!!

It's a reflection on today's society, where a football team is more important than our national day. However there is no stigma that goes with flying a flag for a football match. If you fly the St Gorge's cross on St Gorge's day you are likely to be branded a racist, from some narrow minded politician, who is more concerned about upsetting people in Brussels, than doing what is right for their own!!.. Yet the minority races don't seem to mind, they can accept it is the national day of England and when living in England people should be allowed to fly the English flag. It is hypocrisy gone mad. but it has to get worse before it can get better.

the explanation as I realize it particularly is that the pass of St. George varieties area of the Union flag (Union Jack) that has been confiscated with the aid of fact the logo of the a methods stunning British national social gathering, which advocates racism, and using the flag is now considered to be offencive to a lot of human beings. Many good bodies and local councils are careful approximately exhibiting the flag.by some ability the flag and its symbolism must be reclaimed from the a methods stunning.How i'm uncertain.

Nobody cares about St George's day, but they care about football, obviously.
