Have you got flags where you live?

Yes, Palestinian flags locally and then surrounded by a sea of st George's in the blue collar areas.
I travelled to the Cotswolds at the weekend, distinct lack of flags but lots of talk about 'Sir Nigel'.Last edited by BlueSharp; 1 September 2025, 06:46.Make Mercia Great Again!Comment

There was a graffiti festival in my local city over the weekend.
Most of the art was fantastic but murals of Spitfires and Britania are perhaps a little inflammatory at the moment.Comment

Well the local protests this weekend didnt go ahead apparently.
The police have been good enough to and I quote "book the protests in" for 11 am this Saturday.
I might go along for a laugh as it will be funny to watch Warwickshire Police try and manage this when it gets out of hand which it probably will!
Oh hang on apparently there will be marching! Anyone who wants to watch me try and march should come along for a good giggle - it will be hilarious!!!!!!Former IPSE member

The strong winds in South Essex have proved too much for many flags which now hang in tatters.
What a damn shame.
The cable ties are still looking good though.Last edited by TheDude; 16 September 2025, 12:33.Comment
