The aim of the english store is to promote English made goods, products and services.
We have sometimes had feedback about whether we should be using the cross of St George flag as an emblem due to the above connotation.
We believe it is about time that this "image" was reclaimed as a viable and honest representation of the good things about England; as the stars and stripes flag is for the USA.
Our intention is not to make a political statement but to support the patriotism that we feel exists in our nation.
What do you think?

- The English Store Blog
- The English Store was the creation of Brian Dash and Paul Green who came up with the idea in order to promote English made products and English produced food and drink, as amazingly there were no such sites anywhere on the web.

Yes of course we should use our flag and be proud of it!. I suggest the Cross of St George should be flown fromn every public building alongside the Union Jack, just as the flag of St Andrew is used in Scotland.
