The fourth of July happens in every country, between the third and fifth of July.
In Scotland, there is a "first of Forth", which is a different thing altogether.

Of course not, that is the anniversary of AMERICA'S independance. England is not a colony of another nation, so there is no one to be independant from.
The closest we have is Guy Fawkes Night (5th November), which is the anniversary of the foiled plot to blow up the Houses of Parliment. It's similar to America's 4th of July in that it's traditional for lot's of firework displays to be held across the country, just like the 4th of July.

In the closest sense of the meaning of celebrating your nationality, we have 23rd of April - St Georges day, the national saint of England. The day is not generally celebrated though, although most English would like to, we are not given a national days holiday and our government does not encourage it. Probally due to political correctness.

I guess England has been pretty independent since the Romans left, so there's been no reason for a 4th July! Perhaps when Mr Blair steps down......?

We do have Bonfire night in November, but that is a different thing. We burn an effigy of Guy Fawkes who tried to blow up the Houses of Parliament and the king in 1605 and let off fireworks to celebrate the fact he did not succeed.

of course England has a fourth of July, they just don't celebrate our independence from them though.
