PATRIOTISM is alive and well with most English people celebrating St George's Day yesterday.
Fifty-one per cent said they would do something special to mark the national saint's day, according to a poll.
Meanwhile, six out of 10 in England, Wales and Scotland said they would rather be a citizen of Britain than of any other country - and the National Health Service makes us most proud of our nationality.
The Ipsos survey found going to the pub was the most popular activity to mark St George's Day, followed by family gettogethers and going to a restaurant.
Seven out of 10 thought displaying the red and white flag of St George from houses, cars, pubs and shops is a healthy expression of national pride.
In addition, the number who felt the same way when the flag was flown during the Euros or World Cup jumped to 68 per cent from 57 per cent in 2013.
