Being Turkish by origen, not a lot. Or if he did make it to England, he might actually banish you!
Hate to burst your nationalistic bubble but St. George wasn't English and was never in England. Ever.

St George was known through out europe. There are many English, Russian, and Estonian and Russian Orthodox icons honoring him. People in the farm lands keep bronze icons of him hanging on the walls of their homes for blessings. History reported he bannashed a dragon and is the protector or saint that protects animals.

It is a myth that he slayed any dragons as he was no dragon slayer. St. George is often mistaken for George of Cappdocia, modern day Libya, who actually slayed a dragon. St. George only supposedly slayed the metaphoric "dragon" of paganism. That is why he was adopted as patron saint for his efforts to eradicate pagans and establish Christianity. However, some historians doubt whether St. George actually lived at all!

In Christian hagiography Saint George - The Saint who killed the Dragon (ca. 275-281–April 23, 303) was a soldier of the Roman Empire, from Anatolia, now modern day Turkey, who was venerated as an Islamic and Christian martyr. Saint George is the most venerated saint in the Eastern Orthodox Church and Oriental Orthodox Churches. Immortalised in the tale of George and the Dragon, he is the patron saint of Canada, Catalonia, England, Ethiopia, Georgia, Greece, Montenegro, Portugal, Serbia, the cities of Istanbul, Ljubljana and Moscow, as well as a wide range of professions, organisations and disease sufferers

He banished his mother in law, the dragon bit is just an error due to onlooker testimony. He would be unable to banish anything now, as the fight with his mother in law was terminal, and he is now dead.

subculture is an ever changing factor, this concept that British human beings take a seat around eating tea all day and ingesting scones and cucumber sandwiches is a load of twaddle - o dangle on, a reliable form of individuals i understand drink tea all day, yet out of a mug no longer a bone china cup and saucer! And tea isn't even grown interior the united kingdom, come from India among different places!! it incredibly is a delusion. Scones are effective yet they do no longer determine very much in my experience of self...

Nothing as he does not exist except in the fevered imaginations of right wing religious lunatics, he was dreamed up by the Greeks or Iranians and has no connection with England apart from the fantasies produced by said lunatics.
