These two letters were in the Shropshire Star in the last few days:
Promote St George
As a patriotic English-woman and a proud Shrewsbury resident, I feel it's about time that my local council and the rest of the politically-correct establishment did more to promote England's patron saint.
The council uses taxpayers' money to promote multi-culturalism but does nothing to mark St George's day. This anti-English bias is an absolute disgrace.

I'm English and proud
Isn't it strange how this year it's no longer racist to celebrate St Georges Day?
It couldn't possibly be because the main political parties are scared that they have pushed the English people too far, making them second class citizens in their own country?
All of a sudden the likes of Gordon Brown are saying it's OK to be English again, but we still have the usual rhetorical clap trap in the media.
Why are the English the only race who have to justify who they are? Why are we made to feel guilty about our culture and heritage?
