St Georges Day
should be a holiday. We must be one of the few countries in the world not to celebrate our own patron saint's day

I do like the Athiest day though

Maybe we've realised that as St George was a fucking Armenian (or something)
that we don't care. I think we should celebrate Josef Mengele's birthday.

Somehow I think Showaddywaddy might be more appropriate

The official 'Sound of Evil'

The only more sinister band is The Osmonds, and they were all 'merkins. Slitty-eyed dago-wop whoopsy cousin-shagging bastards.
We need a decent, clean, British Sound of Evil

Chris de Burgh?
this only really works if you know your Bill Bailey...

Do I really need to play the Oasis card again?
How about Finlay Quaye? Now there was some ludicrously insipid, pointless music

My brother used to know him before he was 'famous'.
His nickname was 'dodgy Finlay'.

Presumably your brother knew better than to try and trade on Tricky's name by association

Seriously though
does anyone care that he was Armenian or whatever. I'm guessing the fucking dragon was some kind of illegal immigrant too. Give me a free holiday!

I care. Bloody Pakistanis stealing our jobs,
and noncing up our kids with their sex-gangs.

'Pakistani Nonce Day'?

OK, deal

Won't happen now
Regardless of where the fellow originated, if St George's Day was made a Bank Holiday the BNP and EDL would throw their weight behind it, claiming it represents an English holiday for English people, and every vaguely militant minority in the country would be up in arms. The resulting ruckus would cause the day to forever become associated with the sort of violence more commonly exhibited on Springfield's Whacking Day.

Which could actually be quite a giggle, for those of us watching the riots on telly. I'm all for it.
