Is there a lack of national pride in this country?

Hello,

Am I imagining this? I notice all the other major English speak countries seem to have a real national pride, they love their country.
The Americans, with their star-spangled banners in the front yard, to Independence Day, they are proud to be American. Even the Aussies, I was watching Australian TV yesterday, its all Aussie this Aussies that, Guaranteed Aussie etc etc in their TV advertisements, even Australia day is a big event. Then we have the Irish, I live in Northern Ireland and am down south regularly, there really is a sense of national pride in Ireland, they are proud of their sports GAA, their food, St Patricks day etc, they are proud to be Irish.Then we have the UK & GB. Are we proud to be British? I know a lot of us see things like the Monarchy as glorified scroungers, A Torie government whose main aim is to take from the poor to give to the rich, things like Brexit which the which a lot are regretting, Is that really something to be proud off? Does this make you proud to be British? We have no national holidays such as St Paddys days, even our TV adverts, I rarely if ever see anything like "Guaranteed British" or "Proud to be British" You get the idea.
Whats your thoughts?

Please help.

I didn't find the right solution from the Internet.
