A message for St George’s Day 2025

We know—St George wasn’t English, didn’t visit Britain, and didn’t literally slay a dragon. But national days aren’t about literalism—they’re about meaning.

St George was chosen as England’s patron not for his passport, but for his principles: courage in the face of tyranny, steadfastness in faith, and the defence of the innocent. The dragon he slew is a symbol—of evil, oppression, and injustice. That’s why his story endures.

England’s national day isn’t diminished by St George’s origins; it’s elevated by the universality of what he represents. A country confident in itself can celebrate ideals, not just identities. So yes—Happy St George’s Day! Let’s honour what’s good, true, and worth defending.
