St Georges Day

Posted in the category of General by Dick on the November 4th, 2005

I meant to post this weeks ago. Join the vote I have copied a few lines from the site just to give you a summary. Do visit the site and lets see if we can get a bank holiday thay we deserve.

As you may know, other countries all over the world celebrate their patron saint or have other days, the closest to us and probably the most well known is Saint Patrick’s Day for Ireland! This day is celebrated all over the UK and also widely in the USA, what about Burns night for Scotland, for a well celebrated Scottish poet where the toasting of his words culminates in the eating of haggis, why then can we not have our own patron saint’s day.

We are actively campaigning to get ‘Our Day’ recognised throughout the UK and even to such an extent as being a public or bank holiday. Neither this campaign nor St. George’s Day Ltd have any affiliation or association with political organisations.

Ooops

I noticed this on the news today. Police blunder?

The Police Federation magazine cartoon shows officers taking their shoes off outside a mosque, as a bearded man escapes clutching bags of explosives.
