English City “Too Multicultural” To Celebrate St. George’s Day

Anger as council officials say UK city is ‘too multicultural’ to celebrate St George’s Day

 

Bristol City Council allowed the national day to pass without a single event for the patron saint, despite its history dating back to 1222.

Council chiefs said 91 different languages are spoken in the town and it would be “very difficult to commemorate them all”.

Some in the area feel as though the English symbol has been hijacked by far right groups and are concerned about being branded “racist”.
