I don't think many english give a stuff about St Georges day anyway.
Its only insecure nationalities and people unsure of their identities
that make a big deal out of their patron saints

It's just a symbol of a national day, which is perhaps something
(looking at it a different way) that the English avoid precisely
*because* they are insecure about what their nationality represents.
