    Well done. As if the UK isn’t already the laughing stock of the developed world, we’ve now started arresting people for hanging the country’s flag.

    How idiotic.

    Well in lieu of arresting him for being an absolute fucking walloper

  3. Nothing says patriotism more like a Union Flag flapping over the M6 Northbound 🫡

    “we’ve got to fight on. We’ve got a fight on our hands”.
    Fight with whom? His intrusive thoughts? Strange little man.

    We have such a short time on this planet. To be full of rage and hatred of another race or religion is just baffling. Whats it going to achieve when you’re dead, compared to enjoying life

    Good. It’s about time that these vandals were taken to task.

    Oxfordshire is FULL of prejudice and intolerance in my experience as a northerner who did their secondary education there.

  8. Anyone else from Northern Ireland just looking at this and wondering?

    Good, that’s exactly what this campaign was trying to do and the “it’s just a flag bruh” rhetoric was totally in bad faith.

    He really is one of those people who you can tell is a complete wanker almost immediately after seeing him or hearing him talk.

    If he wasn’t saying exactly what they want to hear then many right wingers would also likely agree I’ll bet.

    Can we arrest whoever allowed £30 billion of real value to be extracted/stripped out of Thames Water over 30 years and then bankrupt it so the government had to bail them out anyway..?

    Wait mb. It’s the UK government in 2026 of course not

    Living in Scotland I hadn’t realised just how pervasive this shit was until I drove through Middlesbrough last week. Fucking flags on every streetlamp, tangled up in tree branches, telephone lines. It was embarrassing. 

    The two yoots on the single electric motorbike wearing balaclavas as they sped down the pavement was the icing on top of the brief, unpleasant experience.

    They’re a bunch of morons using right-wing dog whistle politics, but I really do have to wonder how on the flip-side this could be seen as “causing alarm and distress”. It’s a flag, not a machine gun turret.

    My wife (an immigrant, and no idea about or interest in British politics) was with me when we drove through an area where they’re fond of putting these flags up, and commented “those flags are really pretty, why don’t they do it around our way?” She’s also from a country where they love displaying their national flag.

    I think we should do more of it. They’re cheap, easy to put up, take the symbolism back from the right-wing morons.

    Well you can’t arrest someone for being a massive wanker, so you have to put some reason
