I support the view that a Public Holiday on St George's Day would be a great opportunity for all English people regardless of colour or religion to recognise what binds them together instead of concentrating on differences; realise that there is growing demand in England for a day of national celebration; note that Northern Ireland has had a Bank Holiday on St Patrick's Day since 1903, the Scottish Parliament has introduced a voluntary Bank Holiday on St Andrew's Day and the Welsh Assembly agrees that St David's Day should be a holiday; I further note that there is a danger that England could be left behind without an opportunity to celebrate its rich culture and heritage; and support a Public Holiday being held in England on 23 April.
we are getting so near to 500 signatures and i really want to hit that mark by tonight. can you send this link to a few people who might want to see us finally get our day.

this is picking up way more steam than i ever expected and its amazing to see so many people getting behind the idea. honestly reading through why everyone wants this day off has been the highlight of my week.

Our patron Saint should be celebrated as are the patron saints of, in no particular order, Scotland, Ireland and Wales. Mr Cameron if you truly are a member of a Conservative & Unionist party take note.

The celebration in every town and village, and by fellow-countrymen living beyond Offa's Dyke, Hadrian's Wall and the White Cliffs, is highly desirable. We need to sustain links with Members of Parliament like Greg Mulholland, Andrew Rosindell, Tom Watson and Norman Tebbit.

We should celebrate our national day the same way as other proud and historical nations celebrate theirs. Let the world see once again how welcoming and inclusive this grat country and its people are.

Yes St George's Day must be
created a Public Holiday and soon.
We need to 'replant the flag' and
spend the day reminding the rest
that we are 'alive and kicking'.
