"Nationalism Means To EXCLUDE!" - Anti-Racist Activist Imarn Ayton On St George's Flag 'Racism' 

"anti-racist activist". Nonsense. She's the exact opposite of that.

If the flag offends you why not leave the uk permanantly.

She doesn’t know anything about anything. To have her on this show as some sort of knowledgable guest is an insult.

She just a race baiter simple why do they give her air time

If you don't like our flag then go somewhere else then...🤦‍♀️

This woman looks for things to gate about Britain. We have the right to fly the English flag because we are English 🏴󠁧󠁢󠁥󠁮󠁧󠁿🏴󠁧󠁢󠁥󠁮󠁧󠁿🏴󠁧󠁢󠁥󠁮󠁧󠁿🏴󠁧󠁢󠁥󠁮󠁧󠁿🏴󠁧󠁢󠁥󠁮󠁧󠁿🏴󠁧󠁢󠁥󠁮󠁧󠁿🏴󠁧󠁢󠁥󠁮󠁧󠁿🏴󠁧󠁢󠁥󠁮󠁧󠁿🏴󠁧󠁢󠁥󠁮󠁧󠁿🏴󠁧󠁢󠁥󠁮󠁧󠁿🏴󠁧󠁢󠁥󠁮󠁧󠁿🏴󠁧󠁢󠁥󠁮󠁧󠁿🏴󠁧󠁢󠁥󠁮󠁧󠁿🏴󠁧󠁢󠁥󠁮󠁧󠁿🏴󠁧󠁢󠁥󠁮󠁧󠁿🏴󠁧󠁢󠁥󠁮󠁧󠁿🏴󠁧󠁢󠁥󠁮󠁧󠁿🏴󠁧󠁢󠁥󠁮󠁧󠁿🏴󠁧󠁢󠁥󠁮󠁧󠁿

If you don't like England or the flag I'd quite happily show you the door. 🏴󠁧󠁢󠁥󠁮󠁧󠁿

She needs to piss off.

I associate BLM flag as non inclusive, shouldn't be allowed under this ladies terms

St George was chosen for the English flag🏴󠁧󠁢󠁥󠁮󠁧󠁿 because of his Christian Values and chivalry, against the ROMANS, not because of his birth..

That woman hates our country, but has done extremely well out of it. If she doesn't like it here, she knows what she can do! I don't understand why she has a platform. She is not liked.

It’s our nations flag of course it’s Nationalist.

I feel excluded in my own country by radical Palestinians, Islamism and the fact I'm white.

That woman hasn't got a clue.

She has got the nerve to say she was born in this country, im Scottish and i dont have a problem with the St George flag.

You could slways start loving and contributing to the nation and it's people you have chosen to live amongst instead of bellyaching your self pity to everyone.

This women goes out of her way to exclude anyone that's white

You come to a country willingly, you accept it as it is, faults and all, and you integrate; otherwise,leave. (Such people are always happy to take the money.) I really couldn't care less what she has to say.

😂'Sorry to interrupt,' she says. She always takes over as she can not listen to anyone's opinion other than her own. Rude and condescending every time someone has her on. Can't bear listening!

Most that complain about the flag are English immigrants, you would think they would love the country that has given them a home. In every other country I have lived in they flew their flag with pride and it was celebrated.

So it is okay for foreigners to come into our country and waive the Palestinian flag people who live can’t waive their flag because it’s racist. Why is that I’m English and I’m proud and I will be flying my flag today if you don’t like it tough🇬🇧🏴󠁧󠁢󠁥󠁮󠁧󠁿🇬🇧🏴󠁧󠁢󠁥󠁮󠁧󠁿🇬🇧✌️

The EDL don't exist anymore

Fancy allowing her to spout her rubbish today of all days…I’ve paused after 21 seconds and after this is typed I will not be watching further

If a person lives in Great Britain and enjoys all the benefits from living in this great country but does not share British values should be excluded.

The people of England 🏴󠁧󠁢󠁥󠁮󠁧󠁿, Scotland 🏴󠁧󠁢󠁳󠁣󠁴󠁿,Wales 🏴󠁧󠁢󠁷󠁬󠁳󠁿,Northern Ireland 🇯🇪,and Southern Ireland 🇮🇪, never wanted our countries flooded with asylum seekers and illegal migrants they don't want to integrate into our culture and heritage but demand that we adopt their's, not a hope, the sooner we can reverse the damage done by politicians and ngo's the better,

There are so many non-Brits race grifters around these days

That woman is making a career out of being totally disagreeable, on absolutely everything. Ms Contrary.

I don’t care whether they feel excluded or not. That’s their problem.

More FAR LEFT BOLLOX !!

"For me, the English flag represents, ya know, modern England, English football team, the things we do together."

We love our heritage and traditions, if people don’t like it, there’s planes ✈️ they can take to fly out of our country, the vast majority are making a stand now and finally being proud of who we are again, Happy St George’s Day all, this year and the years to come will only get bigger. 🏴󠁧󠁢󠁥󠁮󠁧󠁿❤️🏴󠁧󠁢󠁥󠁮󠁧󠁿

I can’t watch that woman 😅

I wish they'd exclude her from TV

Didn't this Nicola woman say English Nationalists attacked the Cenotaph? I've yet to see footage of that.

Patriotism is divisive if it's White people who show patriotism for their heritage to these people.The English are Germanic,not African or Asian.If these people who live in our country want to embrace our national day, your welcome, don't though think you can tell us what we can and can't celebrate in our country,take it or leave it,or just leave if our Englishness offendd you.

If they are offended then they should leave

Nationalism excludes other countries not other ethnic groups in said country. I'm not sure what she's implying really.

Then literally defining yourself as anything means to exclude

"Scottish national party" anyone? "Welsh national anthem"? " Oxford english definition of nationalism....... "identification with one's own nation and support for its interests, especially to the exclusion or detriment of the interests of other nations." My point is that anyone who takes pride in their country displays "national pride", there are many forms of nationalism, not all are negative, some are necessary to maintain a countries integrity. What the lady guest is doing is conflating nationalism with extremism. This is a common tactic of political activists, to present the opposing view as the extreme and their own view as the reasonable, when in fact the opposite is usually true. Let's not forget that she's the one that said on national tv that during the coronation the balcony at buckingham palace had too many white people.

So, here we have a diaspora person taking issue with the identity of a people she isn't related to. The question is: what does this tell us about diversity?

People come to this country and fly their own flags yet complain when they see the English/British flags flying.They should leave the country.

I'm proud to be a patriot of the Saint George's flag and proud to be English It's so nice to see our flag instead of the islamic flag Happy Saint George's day to all 🇬🇧🇬🇧🇬🇧🇬🇧🇬🇧🇬🇧🇬🇧🇬🇧🇬🇧🇬🇧🇬🇧🇬🇧🇬🇧🇬🇧🇬🇧🇬🇧🇬🇧🇬🇧🇬🇧🇬🇧🇬🇧🇬🇧🇬🇧🇬🇧🇬🇧🇬🇧🇬🇧

Great St George’s day if she doesn’t like it leave she and this bloke are mad

i took my old mam for lunch at weather spoons today and they had three small signs saying its st George's day ,but there was no st George flags anywhere 😕 not one.if that was st Patrick's day Irish flags would have been everywhere 😢😢why is that😮😮😮its totally wrong, what is wrong with our country..😮😮😮

Displaying and waving the Ukrainian and Palestine flag is A okay but wanting to fly our own and celebrate our patron saint isn’t, this woman is loony toons

id love to have a conversation without an EDI representative popping out and preaching bollocks to us all in the condescending way possible!

England is England.. Fly the flag as other countries do, Non English people like myself should accept the traditions and values of the country if you want to live here,

I'm English and that flag is ours, come and get it if you're hard enough

She's going to the extreme with Nationalism, people are proud of their country, end of, Who's being excluded. Mad

nationalism: loyalty and devotion to a nation. especially : a sense of national consciousness exalting one nation above all others and placing primary emphasis on promotion of its culture and interests as opposed to those of other nations or supranational groups. patriotism: the quality of being patriotic; devotion to and vigorous support for one's country. straight from the dictionary, stop with the BS people.

What about the other flags waved in London protests - Jews feel `excluded` when the Palestinian flag is showing. Palestinians feel `excluded` when the Israeli flag is showing! I feel `excluded` when either flag is showing. Who is going to come to the aid of my fragile emotions? Where are you! Help!

So is she saying its not ok to fly the Welsh, Scottish, Irish flags too

I really don't care what she thinks or has to say.Happy St.Georges Day everyone.🏴󠁧󠁢󠁥󠁮󠁧󠁿🏴󠁧󠁢󠁥󠁮󠁧󠁿🏴󠁧󠁢󠁥󠁮󠁧󠁿🏴󠁧󠁢󠁥󠁮󠁧󠁿🇬🇧🇬🇧🇬🇧🇬🇧

I can name a few other flags that exclude me but i dont stop them celebrating. Go tell the Welsh, the Irish or Scottish their flags exclude. Does this women want to rub out our histories?

If you are the opposite to her then you are on the right track and should be proud of it!

So are Palestinians offended by their own flag in a foreign country?

England for the English!

People can't be patriotic for their nation now, and they wonder why the army can't recruit

The flag is inclusive, for actual English people 🏴󠁧󠁢󠁥󠁮󠁧󠁿

This woman is poorly educated on St, George flag saying its not inclusive enough. He's the patron saint of many nations.

It's strange is it not, that according to these people we are racist, yet people from over seas keep on coming, you would think they would go else where, but this is just telling the people of the U.K. shut up n give us a better life, while you are the ones excluded.

Seen her before, same old script, same smug smile.

I get a bit sick of this thing about St George being Turkish. Several other countries have him as a patron saint too. So what? But do you know why? Because patron saints are a Christian concept - as Christianity spread these symbolic figures were adopted. Over time they become uniquely part of the local culture. For example, Father Christmas is a familiar figure in Britain and elsewhere - does it really matter that he was originally a Scandinavian legend called Sinte Klaas? No. This symbol has taken on a life of its own within our culture and that’s ok.

Im glad they muted her at the end she always trys contradict the other persons closing statement after shes already made her own

Can you just mute people when it isn't their turn to speak? Shes so incredibly rude!

This womans income depends on her accusing everyone and everything as racist.

She says these thing to deliberately offend the Host Country and it's people. What country does she support then,? She offends me; I wonder why she is here at all, is it anything to do with her pay packet and life style?

No Imarn we do not need a new flag and if you had gone to London and other English towns and cities yesterday there was plenty of other ethnicities joining in the celebrations .All were welcome and included . This was St Georges Day 2024 a new modern up to date St Georges Day which is all inclusive . So please stop your nonsense as we have all had enough of it

How can it be divisible when St George's Day is celebrated everywhere, in other countries. He didn't actually come to England but he was a warrior for the Christian faith a Greek speaking roman. Ppl need to learn their history before they rip British history apa in which they don't understand. I celebrate St George's Day!! Our History get over it !!! 🏴󠁧󠁢󠁥󠁮󠁧󠁿🏴󠁧󠁢󠁥󠁮󠁧󠁿🏴󠁧󠁢󠁥󠁮󠁧󠁿🏴󠁧󠁢󠁥󠁮󠁧󠁿 Patriotic and Nationalist with many others. 🇬🇧🇬🇧🇬🇧🏴󠁧󠁢󠁥󠁮󠁧󠁿🏴󠁧󠁢󠁥󠁮󠁧󠁿🏴󠁧󠁢󠁥󠁮󠁧󠁿 don't like it then leave.

She talks absolute bollox.

HAPPY ST GEORGE'S DAY!! 👏👏👏🏴󠁧󠁢󠁥󠁮󠁧󠁿🌹❤👊👍

If black or brown people feel excludec on st Georges day...perhaps they should start by being more patriotic to Britain.........i feel excluded by the Palestinian flag.

It's the English flag so get over it if you do not like it go somewhere you do like the flag maybe Russia.😂😂😂

This is such a confusing watch, cause why is it not okay to fly the English at George’s cross because that’s not inclusive, but the Union Jack is okay even though nationalist can and will associate with either flag depending on their level of patriotism towards England as 1 country or the UK as 1 nation, which is entirely possible to be a patriotic nationalist, it’s also entirely possible to be a patriotic liberal, or patriotic conservative, patriotism and nationalism are VASTLY different things, im also confused at the fact the flag that was flown by the colonisers that “invented” racism is okay to be flown today even though it doesn’t represent England just Great Britain but a white background with a Red Cross is offensive and should be banned? It’s not nazi symbolisation it’s the English flag for Christ sake😂 if you’re offended by the flag of a country YOU need to get a grip and no one else, don’t go to the country, don’t watch their tv listen to their media or indulge in their delicacies you have literally anywhere else on the whole planet to go to

St Jorge was Greek actually..

VOTE REFORM UK PEOPLE

The EDL don't exist anymore it debanded years ago !

How come only the English are racists and shouldn't be patriotic? In Sweden you see the national flag everywhere. Why is the Scottish, Welsh and Irish flag ok, but the English is not? Isn't that racist?

Some people can get nervous when there are a lot of St Georges flags. For example, in 2002 at the time of the world cup and the queens golden jubilee, a woman of colour was concerned about the number of St Georges flags.

I'm brown and mixed-race(Indian/English/Jamaican) and i'm not scared of the St George's flag 🤣. I don't understand why people would be scared of a flag, let alone the flag that was on those anti-slave trade Royal Navy ship patrols, where those ships carrying slaves from Africa were stopped and the African people on them set free, the captains and workers on those ships grew to be terrified of our St George's flag, because we stopped them from trying to continue the Atlantic Slave Trade. Just because some racist people use the St George's flag, doesn't mean that we should forget the history. I hope things turn around, and people can be proud to be English, i know i am. I can't say that i'm proud to be 'British', because i have no Welsh, Irish or Scottish blood, only English(all from Suffolk since pre-400AD, bunch of gingers in my family), and have never even been to Wales, Scotland, or Ireland, so my passport may say British, but i'm English born and raised.

Why do people call Harry Prince he has DISOWNED his country he is no longer A PRINCE 💯❗❗❗❗❗

Did you know that England & Palestine are one of many many countries that St. George is the patron saint of? WE ARE NOT SPECIAL. Here's the complete list of countries where St. George is the patron saint: 1. England 2. Georgia 3. Portugal 4. Cyprus 5. Greece 6. Russia 7. Bulgaria 8. Serbia 9. Montenegro 10. Ethiopia 11. Palestine 12. Lithuania

Nobody needs to feel excluded as long as people like this woman don't encourage them to feel excluded. Many blacks and brown people are proud to be a part of this wonderful country. This woman finds racism in absolutely everything. The sooner we stop giving her air time the better.

This our st George flag and those who do not please have the decency and leave we do not need or want you here rule Brittannië

Everybody who is a patriot is welcome to celebrate St George's day. Nobody is excluded from it. Remember we are all in this together.

She is partially correct, the vast majority of Britain's nationalists are what we call civic-nationalists. This so called hateful fringe of racists are technically called ethno-nationalists and they genuinely are a small minority. 'Let’s explore the differences between ethno-nationalism and civic nationalism: Ethno-Nationalism: Definition: Ethno-nationalism defines a nation based on shared heritage, ethnicity, and cultural ties. It emphasizes the importance of common ancestry, language, religion, and historical traditions. Focus: The primary focus is on ethnic identity and belonging. People who identify with a specific ethnic community are considered part of the nation. Exclusivity: Ethno-nationalism tends to be exclusive, as it often excludes individuals who do not share the same ethnic background. Examples: Movements advocating for the preservation of a specific ethnic group’s identity, culture, and sovereignty fall under ethno-nationalism. Civic Nationalism: Definition: Civic nationalism, on the other hand, is based on political ties, civic rights, and citizenship. It emphasizes shared values, institutions, and participation in the nation’s civic life. Focus: Civic nationalism includes people regardless of their ethnic origins. Anyone who adheres to and values the nation’s institutions and civic values belongs to the nation. Inclusivity: Civic nationalism is inclusive, recognizing diversity within the nation. It celebrates unity in diversity. Examples: Patriotism based on democratic principles, loyalty to constitutional rights, and pride in being part of a nation that transcends ethnic boundaries aligns with civic nationalism. In summary, while ethno-nationalism emphasizes ethnic heritage and exclusivity, civic nationalism focuses on shared values, institutions, and inclusivity, regardless of ethnic origins.' (AI)

So is Imarn Ayton going to argue with Scotland, Northern Ireland and Wales about their nationalism? Or, is only England supposed to be subsumed into the Union Flag?

St George was actually the Egyptian Horus, who is also pictured slaying a dragon. The dragon is actually Seth, the somewhat wayward and destructive brother of Osiris. This all comes from Egyptian theology. R

One in eight says the OUR national flag is " racist and divisive" who the hell did they ask, all the foreign jonnies getting off the boats!

Nonsense! I’m a Scot, living in England, I’m not excluded, I’m Scottish. I wish the Auld Enemy well, and so I should, living in England. I live in the now, not the past.

Imarn reminds me of someone in meth psychosis who just drank a daiquiri and put on a suit and snuck into a business meeting .

Anyone offended by the ST George flag can leave the UK and go and live in a more tolerant country if they can find one

Like the Liberal Democrat’s, who are not liberal or democratic, the he Conservatives, who are not Conservative and Labour, who do not represent workers, this ‘anti’ racist is patently the most racist person we constantly see on all media😂

Openly ENGLISH and A HAPPY ST GEORGES DAY.....

The St George's flag is for England, the Union Jack is for Great Britain. It has nothing to do with colour, race or religion. If your not happy, TUFF GET OVER IT.

There's no exclusion. If you are English, live in England or have some connection to England you can celebrate St George's day. My father and mother have connections to Ireland and Scotland so I can celebrate their saint day too. No one is saying this flag isn't for you.

The flag is the flag of England as in the Cross of St George, our patron saint. Why doesn’t she just clear off somewhere else where she may like their flags, emblems and culture.

Now a Brit in my seventies i have lived under many flags..The union jack.the Stars and Stripes The French flag the Italian Flag..and now im living under the flag of Thailand...i pray one day there will be just one Flag...a Global Flag...AND THE ALL THIS NONSENSE WILL BE A THING OF THE PAST..

Its simple. All the multicultural groups need to lift up the flag of St George. And say that we are English we believe in England. That is the best way to bring the country together. Don't allow the flag to be used for division. If multicultural groups embraced it, then immediately it becomes a unifying flag. That is good for everyone living in England and would stop the mischievous minority from using it for their own purposes.

This generation is the least English for 1,000 years, the talking down of our flag and our culture and our days of celebration from people born in this country, but who culturally have sod all to do with this nation, is destroying this country, and I`m sick of it. Our culture is being destroyed, pride in this country has been decimated
