Britons have expressed their disappointment at the lack of acknowledgement for St George's Day, telling GB News they think it should be celebrated more.
Speaking to GB News, in Paddington, central London, most Britons stressed the importance of celebrating the nation's patron saint, while some admitted they do not celebrate the occasion.
One man told GB News: "On St George's Day, I wouldn't choose personally to fly the St George's Day flag.
"Not for any particular reason, it's just that I don't celebrate the day itself."
In contrast, another Briton declared that it is a "great thing" to remember and celebrate the country's heritage.
He stressed: "Well, it's England's patron saint, isn't it? I think it's really important that we remember our heritage.
"I think it's important we remember our history, and I think it's a great thing."

During his address to mark the occasion, Prime Minister Sir Keir Starmer railed against those attempting to create "division".
He said: "There are voices both here and abroad who would seek to divide us, who want to set us apart from each other, who want to pretend that in this country what we really do is to distinguish between people.
