Since St George was born in Turkey, died in Palestine and never set foot on Britain I find all of his flags going up around the UK a bit strange but am fine with it really. A nice international symbol of unity with all the other countries with him as their patron saint (Aragon, Catalonia, Georgia, Lithuania, Palestine, Portugal, Germany, Greece, Moscow, Istanbul, Genoa and Venice).
My worry is that in a year there will be really tatty flags everywhere, filling the air with microplastic…
