April 19, 2010 By admin

Daily Mail:

Over-the-top political correctness, loss of national identity, and worrying about being judged when expressing pride in the country are the main reasons behind the findings, according to a study. (…)

Just one in three foreigners knew St George’s Day was on Friday and more than 40 per cent probably also foreigners had no idea why he is the patron saint.

Four out of ten people said they would happily express their national pride behind closed doors.
