Do you think St Georges Day should be a bank holiday?

Thoughts?

The UK has one of the fewest number of bank holidays in Europe so I think yes.

I think so, because the Irish get a day off for St. Patricks day.

A hell of a lot of people I know, particularly people I have met in the army, have a massive pride for England. It's just we're not really allowed to show that pride any more tbh. A celebration of St George's day would be a perfect way to show that pride.

There's a bank holiday on the 4th of May so no need to worry.

I don't think enough people care about St George, like they do St Patrick in Ireland.
