Your mate, was he called Mel?I like the flags aesthetically. I think they look good. But, rather than being there because people with a certain political stance are using them to make a nationalist point, they should be a feature for all big national days or even a permanent fixture.
I remember going to Turkey where they had flags on the top of, what felt like, every building and I went out onto the harbour wall and looked back at the town and it looked class.
The Union Jack has always been a cool flag. I’ve got a Union Jack throw out on my balcony for when it’s chilly, some Union Jack cushions on my sofa in my living room, Union Jack socks I wear for work and also an umbrella with a Union Jack on the inside.
My preference of it as a style comes from Mod and Oasis iconography that’s been seen over the decades from the Small Faces to The Jam, Lambrettas, Mini Coopers, Mary Quant, Pete Townsend, Liam+Noel in the 90s, Cool Britannia, the 2012 Olympics etc.
When it was VE Day’s 80th anniversary in early Summer, I thought some of the towns and cities being decked out in Union Jacks looked mint.
I took a snap of Altrincham Market a few years ago because I liked the Union Jack decoration it had up there:

St George’s Cross flags, less so. I actually prefer St Edmund’s flag for England (which, I know, is a contradiction since St George’s Cross is a feature of the Union Jack, haha)… But I don’t mind them.
When our mate used to run the Railway pub in Broadheath, he used to have a giant England flag on the front of the pub going back years. Always thought it looked good.
Patriotism should be welcomed by more people. Nationalist political stances shouldn’t be pushed though.

This clown defected from Conservative to Reform just over a week ago - he refuses to call a by-election in his ward so his electorate voted Tory and got Reform. Here he is lecturing us all on anti-democratic practises - this shit writes itself really
Lol - when your unicorn aspirations have to breathe oxygen
is that "womansplaining"?
Council leaders have too much power under the cabinet system. It's OK with a good leader but she seems to like the power.is that "womansplaining"?
