iain Macwhirter: Watch out Nicola, it s become clear that the English can do civic nationalism too . Fifty five years of hurt may or may not be over tonight at Wembley. Italy haven’t lost a match in the last 33, and it could be a massive comedown. But one thing is clear: English nationalism is coming home. In 1966, when England won the World Cup, the flag of choice was the Union Jack. We won’t be seeing much of that tonight. Perhaps the most abiding image of the Euros was Boris Johnson standing on that massive Cross of St George outside Downing Street. I can’t think of any prime minister who would have done anything similar. Traditional Tories would have thought it vulgar to pose so shamelessly on a national symbol. Liberal Tories like David Cameron would have feared association with the far right, whose emblem that was until very recently.
