The British government faces heavy criticism after admitting that it spent a total of £230 on promoting St George’s Day over the last five years.
The sum is broken down into £116 spent in 2007, £114 in 2006 and nothing at all in the preceding three years.
Apopleptic cabbies and football fans across England, outraged at the insult to their national pride, vowed to put even larger flags on their car aerials - even if it meant they couldn’t actually see where they were going.
“When we had an empire, everything in the world was just peachy, wunnit?” screamed a Mr Garnett. “Land of ‘ope and Glory? Yaw’re ‘avin’ a larf, mate. This useta be the best bladdy cantry in the world - nah look at it. Them ruddy foreigners is larfin’ at us – larfin’, I tell yer.”
Meanwhile, MPs representing the other three nations of the UK called for an inquiry into the gross waste of public money.
