Very true. Particularly effective when foreign governments and the tabloid and liberal press are running a co-ordinated smear campaign against your opponent.

Especially effective when your opponent is unelectable in the first place.

It's like the scouse trent thing, Using their first name seems to make them think some groups an validate someone under par on talent

The Trent thing gets on my tits just as much.

Pathetic is getting upset by the sight of our nations flag.

Who is upset by the flag? cetrainly not me.

You really are a knee jerk comentator angry and assumptive of any post you don't like without getting the point.

It isn't about the flag (it could be a UN or Commonwealth one tbh) it's the use that is up for mirth as it is clearly a photo oportunity prop and has zero nationalistic or patriotic merit to it

no it's pathetic he thinks he needs to shoehorn one intl every picture to prove he is loyal to his country.

If you were a politician and were told that sitting in front of your own country's flag would win you a couple of % extra votes, you'd be mad not to. It's why just about every politician in the World does it.

If sitting by a flag means that less kids suffer from malnutrition then I say go for it.

Is it for the aforementioned organisations to decide who is electable?

ffs look at the picture, it isn't even stately, it looks like it has been thrown in for effect.

If the flag is nothing more than a photo opportunity prop then that is more insulting than not having one inho

You had no point. Its our nations flag, he will be PM and much like every single nation the world over, politicians pose in front of theirs at almost every photo opportunity.

Flag shagging becoming an election issue?
