Saint Crispin's Feast Day is tomorrow - it is written in the speech. Brand looks lovely in his white shirt and jacket - he should wear it more often. Reminds me of the dreams of the guys wearing a white shirt and suit.

Definitely British - it is written that Saint Crispin came from a Romano-Briton family that lived in Canterbury and that would make sense. The link mentions Faversham and the name of an ancient pub 'Crispin and Crispianus' at Strood in Kent. St Crispins Feast Day is the 25th October.
The 'Battle of Agincourt' was fought on Saint Crispin's Day.

The Order of the Knights of St Crispin is American. An American labor Union.

Funny that Saint Crispin is the patron saint of cobblers - and Farage and Brand do know how to talk a lot of that. However - Farage is a lot more experienced at politics than Brand. At least he has been in the European parliament defending the people.

UPDATE
Excellent article about Brand by a journalist.
