Well, that and Tommy Robinson avoiding jail time.
After being acquitted of violating a dispersal order, Tommy and his mates headed for a rally in Whitehall where he and other far-right figures spoke more about a two-tiered police system than about England’s green and pleasant lands.
There were flags, singing, and the violence that is now customary at this kind of gathering.
We wanted to know why people were here.
Was it to celebrate England’s patron saint or one of its most infamous sons?

"Is he Scottish or is he Islam". Where to even start with that.

Jeremy Corbyn had plans to make St. Georges day a holiday but that policy was memory holed

Maybe if the police and politicians treated the English fairly and not like dirt then there wouldn’t be a reaction. Only country in the world your not allowed to be patriotic

"Why don't we have a bank holiday for the English?" Asks the man not at work in the middle of the day on a Wednesday.

Nothing embodies Englishness more than cosplaying as a Greek guy in a fantasy uniform of a French religious order, while singing a song written by the grandson of exiled Polish Jews.
-
"Is he Scottish or is he Islam?" Powerful. Powerful message.

St George is EXACTLY the kind if middle-eastern multicultural type they hate. He was born in what is now day Turkey, a Cappadocian Greek-speaker with a Syrian mother. He was raised in Palestine by her after his father’s death.

That lady said "Political correctness will becone a communism" What the hell does that even mean?
-
This is a terrible indictment of the English education system

Love how so many were dressed as Norman knights. As in the ones who came over and subjugated the English turning us into a French colony.

"My partner is Muslim"...yeah ok I believe that. Bring him down, let's see what a warm welcome he will get with your friends.

"I'm in St George's battle dress" He's actually dressed as a Knights Templar

Just some lost, angry people who don't know why they're there or what exactly they're angry about. They talk about legitimate grievances (government corruption, lack of accountability, economic inequality), but the wrong people (Robinson) have latched onto them and fed them an illusory enemy.
