Alan Ford is proud to be English, but feels that the English culture is under threat. He argues that multiculturalism has gone too far and that negative images of football hooligans and a growth in political correctness have combined to create a false impression of the English. He also calls for a separate English parliament and the establishment of St George's Day as a national holiday.
