I think Kev nailed it on the head early on in the thread.

By all means celebrate your Englishness but not at the expense of any other race or creed.
Creed? If the creed infringes on my civil liberties or the civil liberties of others, then I will run down any creed.
Fran's going to give you a slap next time she sees you.
