The English Democrats are an English federalist political party, committed to the formation of a devolved English Parliament with at least the same powers as those granted to the Scottish Parliament. Whilst not supporting English Independence, the English Democrats consider themselves the English equivalent of the Scottish National Party in Scotland and Plaid Cymru in Wales. Their motto is "Not left, not right, just English". At the English local elections in June 2009, the party's candidate won the Mayoral Election for the Metropolitan Borough of Doncaster.

In 1998, and in response to calls for the devolution of power to Scotland and Wales, Robin Tilbrook formed the "English National Party", with the aim of reforming the defunct English National Party which had been founded in the 1960s, but had ceased operating as a party by 1981. The English National Party formed by Robin Tilbrook included members of the Campaign for an English Parliament, a pressure group that lobbies for a devolved English Parliament.

Robin William Charles Tilbrook (1958, Kuala Lumpur, Malaysia) is a solicitor and English politician, the chairman and founder member of the English Democrats.

He was a member of the Conservative Student Association and a member of the Conservative Party, at one time a Conservative candidate for Ongar Town council.^{[citation needed]} He founded the English National Party in 1997, and then relaunched the party as the English Democrats in 2002 to campaign for an English Parliament. He is also the nominating officer and treasurer. He has stood as a candidate for the English Democrats in local, parliamentary and European elections. Standing in Epping Forest, he received 1.4% of the vote in the 2005 General Election, 4.4% at 2005 County Council elections, 18.2% in the 2007 District Council elections, and 11.3% in the 2009 County Council elections. He gained 2.01% of the vote as the lead candidate for the Eastern region in the 2009 European elections. He says of the English Democrats that "We're hoping to do what the Scottish National Party managed to do in the 1970s and break through to being able to influence what happens in Parliament about England". Tilbrook says "his party agitates for anyone living in England. His notion of Englishness is akin to American notions of "Americanness" - that you can be from any ethnic background and still wrap yourself in the flag." He has criticized spending on St. Patrick's Day in London when he says too little is spent on St. George's Day. He argues that the money given by the UK to the EU is given to other parts of the country at the expense of England, which makes his party Eurosceptic.

Saint George (c. 275/281 – 23 April 303) was, according to tradition, a Roman soldier from Syria Palaestina and a soldier in the Guard of Diocletian, who is venerated as a Christian martyr. In hagiography Saint George is one of the most venerated saints in the Catholic (Western and Eastern Rites), Anglican, Eastern Orthodox, and the Oriental Orthodox churches. He is immortalized in the tale of Saint George and the Dragon and is one of the Fourteen Holy Helpers. His memorial is celebrated on 23 April, and he is regarded as one of the most prominent military saints.

Many Patronages of Saint George exist around the world, including: Georgia, England, Egypt, Bulgaria, Aragon, Catalonia, Romania, Ethiopia, Greece, India, Iraq, Lithuania, Palestine, Portugal, Serbia, Ukraine and Russia, as well as the cities of Genoa, Amersfoort, Beirut, Botoşani, Drobeta Turnu-Severin, Timişoara, Fakiha, Bteghrine, Cáceres, Ferrara, Freiburg, Kragujevac, Kumanovo, Ljubljana, Pérouges, Pomorie, Preston, Qormi, Rio de Janeiro, Lod, Lviv, Barcelona, Moscow, Tamworth and the Maltese island of Gozo, as well as of the Scout Movement and a wide range of professions, organizations and disease sufferers.

The George's Day Movement (Движение Гергьовден, Dvizhenie Gergyovden) is a nationalist political party in Bulgaria. The movement didn't win any seat in the 2001 elections. It joined the United Democratic Forces before the 2005 elections. The United Democratic Forces won in the 2001 elections 18.2 % of the popular vote and 51 out of 240 seats.
