    Shows how much you know @Addickted, are you French or something?

    25 October was the battle of Agincourt

    That speech was at the siege of Harfleur earlier in the campaign.

    Actually the battle of Agincourt isn't decided until there is a " people's" vote

    So August to September then? Not April the 23rd.

    In peace there's nothing so becomes a man
    As modest stillness and humility:

    Not 25 October though as you claimed, Frenchie

    The speech wasn't set on St Georges Day but it references St George and was written by someone born/baptised on 23 April.  Hence why I used it

    Obviously all true Englishman reject the Norman yoke and prefer St Edmund, our true patron saint.

    Heard a radio presenter apologising for wishing everyone a happy st George's Day this morning.

    Why does St George's Day feel like a dirty word?
    Because the English are God's chosen people and St Georges day makes other nations and races feel inferior to there English betters.

    They might beat us, but will never be us. 

    Happy St. Georges day xx

    Happy St George’s Day all.

    For those getting wound up and falling for the usual debates.

    No one thinks the day is racist, well there’s probably a 0.0001% lunatic cult somewhere that does and the sun and daily mail more than likely printed and article about them to wind us all up. Don’t fall for it.

    There’s probably a guardian journalist somewhere that’s trying to make a name for themselves by telling you things like “St George was a Turk ner ner nernerner” again don’t fall for it, they’re just trying to sell papers and wind us all up.

    ”We make more of a fuss for st paddy’s day!”  If you feel this way, make more of a fuss yourself for St. George’s day, no one is stopping you, and st paddy’s day doesn’t suppress St. George’s day, organise a beer with your friends and family make a scene for it.

    Have a beer and do something English this evening all!!

    Just so everyone is clear, St George's Day is 29 or 30 April this year, depending on whether you are Catholic or Protestant, respectively.
