Salford lad and Patriot Sam Close, who was celebrating told Politicalite:”England is the greatest country in the world… Other countries just like to hold grudges from things that happened 500 years ago… Nothing but jealousy and try make out we’re racist … But have no problem celebrating St David’s Days, St Andrews Day and ESPECIALLY St Patrick’s Day.”

Joseph Afrane tweeted: “Today is 23 April 2019. Please I am wishing all My #english friends in #theuk and English all over the world a very happy St George’s Day #england #StGeorgesDay”

Saint George was best known for the day he slayed a dragon, and his refusal to denounce Christianity.

He died in Lydda, which is now Israel.
