If it ain't white it ain't right
[QUOTE=matt.ant;41329663]Didn't they have riots when a town hall removed its flag?[/QUOTE]
Aye, Belfast city hall; there was 'peaceful' protests all over the different towns and citys; It's pretty mad, everyone gets all pissy about flags over here even though 99% of the time they just leave them out to get worn down and tattered by the weather.

Generally hanging an england flag in your window is shorthand for 'I'm a thug'
God hates flags
what if it's painted glass.
A+ common sense ya wally.
Looks hideous to me, if your going to have a flag buy a pole.
[QUOTE=U.S.S.R;41329724]They look nothing more than silly and cute when hung from the windows of a flat. If you want intimidating or "negative feeling conjuring", talk to a Nazi or a Red.

most maids in britain are polish anyway mate.
This makes me want to hang more flags.
I could understand if the flag had a picture of someone from another country being killed or something horrid like that, but just a regular ol' flag of your country and homeland? That's just fucking retarded, be fucking proud of where you're from, don't bend over for the other fucks that enter your country, hell here in America, in Florida you can't pass a Cuban in his/her car without it having some type of Cuban flag on it.
Its kind of sad how the British and English flags have become so associated with jingoism and racism.

It's just the housing trust, it's not like it's law or anything
They do look pretty tacky though draped out of windows, nobody ever gives a toss if it's on a pole or something

It's about time we took it back I think after associating ourselves almost exclusively with the Union Flag for so long, far right groups should be banned from using the English flag
I bet that the council is thinking of really banning them because of "English pride!", or even worse, World War 1 and 2

Anti-British Culture being shoved at us because having pride in your country is forbidden due to tolerance.
They look scruffy as hell, glad to see them gone.

I'm sure it is.

Did you even read the article? Do you only choose what you want to hear for an excuse to point fingers?

what country is this
[editline]6th July 2013[/editline]
cause it isn't clear enough
They didn't say anything about flags on the roof!
Then again this is a housing association, letting anything touch the roof is probably a death sentence
I have a phobia of flags and this news pleases me.
[QUOTE]She revealed the policy would say "tenants must not hang or fix signs, banners or flags on the outside of the property, outside windows or on balconies, without our permission".[/QUOTE]
I understand banners and signs, but honestly, flags? This is just too silly. :v:
Funny thing is that living in a larger city in germany which has a university and a large portion of foreign students, you can see many of them showing their flag in their window, and no one is offended, not germans or other foreign students.
A flag murdered my only son.
what's the point of a window you can't see out of

Because, at least in Essex, the only people who hang flags out of the window are likely to go and start fights in pubs and clubs if Millwall win a game.
