it welcomed displaying flags of any nation during the World Cup — so long as council permission was given — and was considering exempting flags from the bylaw permanently
Doesnt seem that way. Just seems like a jumped up council employee to me, there are a lot of those about.

God damn madness. I am all for every one being treated equal.. but this isn't it is it. Everyone should have the right to fly their flag, or anyone elses for that matter!

Who is actually offended by it for heavens sake?! Does that mean there will be no flags sold for cars this year, no flags in the pubs? Heck, are we even allowed to wear England shirts?! Mental.

HAHAH, this reminds me of the outrage story that went around last world cup about the guy not being allowed to fly two St. Georges Crosses. They neglected to mention that he wasnt allowed because they were so big that they hung into the road, and that the two St. Georges flags that were already there were fine. People never bothered to actually look at the situation, they are so eager to work themselves up into a fine nationalist outrage

Wallas would be proud.

Well the ugly fucker in the picyure is 1 of my best mates, hence why i am in partnership with him.
He was born in Pakistan but since coming here has become westernised,
He supports England probably more than most saying "Well its the country thats helped me" and i see it as my country and my childrens country, he is more racist to his own than whites, and loves a bloody good drink

the only dilemma youll find him in is when England play Pakistan in the cricket

Most of the Asian drivers at our place are giving it the backing so that disputes the 'racial tension' murmurs coming from the Council.

Either on my forearm or more than likely on my back below the current 1.
