English patriotism and national pride are very much in vogue at the moment, largely thanks to demented right-wingers ‘raising the colours’ which, let’s be honest, is more of an exercise in intimidating immigrants than a celebration of our proud literary, scientific and cultural history.

But there were also a lot of entertainingly unserious and sarcastic replies too, and that’s very much why we’re here.

Here’s Earth’s question.
