Keir Starmer has a major problem. No, not that one. Although the scandal over Peter Mandelson could certainly bring a premature end to his time as Prime Minister. The other issue Sir Keir has is with the country he represents. England. We all know that this socialist human rights lawyer wants to reverse Brexit and drag Britain back into the clutches of his beloved EU.

The thoughts and beliefs of the 17.4 million people who voted to leave don’t feature in this Starmer fantasyland. So it should come as no surprise that the man who doesn’t want to offend anyone should omit the word England from his St George’s Day message. Why can’t he bring himself to say the name of the country of his birth on the very day that English culture is celebrated?

It’s not exactly a new thing – Saint George has been the patron saint of England since Tudor times.

Not only is it a Christian festival but also serves as a national day highlighting this particular country’s culture, heritage, and national identity.

Sadly, for some people, typically the lefty, yoghurt-weaving wokerati, this is all too much to bear.

They regard the cross of St George as some kind of racist anti-migrant emblem, a dirty national flag that has no place in our modern multicultural society.

Even Starmer’s predecessor as Labour leader, Jeremy Corbyn, appeared to me more patriotic, promising to make St George’s Day one of four new Bank Holidays in his party’s 2017 election manifesto

Sir Keir isn’t ashamed to pose with the England football top when it suits him.

I guess it’s too good a photo opportunity to miss.

In his 357-word St George’s Day message today, the Prime Minister hailed the “quiet British patriotism”, arguing that it was “what makes us stronger”.

It’s just a huge shame he didn’t mention the E-word.
