Morons out in force for St George’s day

We look at some of the best and the worst tweets as England celebrates its patron saint.

Few patron saints tease morons out of their xenophobic holes better than St George, and this year was no exception.

Katie Hopkins, David Vance and Martin Daubney joined a host of idiotic tweeters who capitalised on the day to propagate their racist bile.

As is often the case the responses offered a more insightful and heartening version of events.

We take a look at the best and the worst below:

Where is Sadiq? Oh….

Dear @MayorofLondon
It may have escaped your attention but today is #StGeorgesDay and I note you have nothing to say about it. Do you hate the English THAT much?
???????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????

Today we celebrate #StGeorgesDay and everything that makes this nation great, from our rich and diverse culture to our resilience and our generosity. ??????? pic.twitter.com/ueZ23iTeun

— Mayor of London (gov.uk/coronavirus) (@MayorofLondon) April 23, 2020

This is both the best and worst #StGeorgesDay post of all time by the way pic.twitter.com/PKVv7LZi3l

Lammy nails it again

I was born in Archway. I love the countryside, Walkers crisps and Sunday Roasts. I was a Church of England chorister. The comedy that makes me laugh the most is English – from Dick Emery and Benny Hill to Alan Partridge.

I’m as English as anyone else #StGeorgesDay pic.twitter.com/eb2dib1WTd

Hopkins out on Diwali

On #StGeorgesDay – spare a thought for the English.

This is London under Sadiq Khan.

This is what we are up against. These Gentlemen calling me “a Zionist bitch” #StGeorge pic.twitter.com/UCb0kGL14g

And where would we be without the Brexit Party lunes…..

Happy #StGeorgesDay during a hugely testing time

I note that the BBC website – filled with #coronavirus stories critical of the government and even a #DrWho plug – fails to mention our national day or celebrate Englishness. Plus ça change! ??‍♂️??????? pic.twitter.com/w8SAiA6CJP
