A  Friend of ours and member at our Golf Club is a publican and he put a big
sign outside advertising a St George's Day Celebration.

His pub is close to a mixed race area and he's since had a visit from police
requesting that the sign be taken down for fear of offending local ethnic
groups.

It amazes me how St Paddy's day can be emblazened everywhere in England but
for some reason St George's Day is frowned upon.

Anyone know of any similar experiences or laws that prevent celebrating St
George's Day.

I think it should replace May Day which means nothing to me.
