Why do we never see this flag anymore? Should it be retired?
Unfortunately because the woke brigade think it’s a racist statement.Why do we never see this flag anymore? Should it be retired?
Jaffa.....don't be silly. The limited circles you move in might suggest this but it ain't true.Unfortunately because the woke brigade think it’s a racist statement.
The use of the flag has, to a certain extent, hijacked its meaning. This continuous and boring use of the word “woke” has nothing to do with it.Unfortunately because the woke brigade think it’s a racist statement.
The Union Jack is not tainted.The use of the flag has, to a certain extent, hijacked its meaning. This continuous and boring use of the word “woke” has nothing to do with it.
For the record, a few years ago, my curiosity got the better of me, when 2 Union Jacks appeared on flagpoles not too far from me. I decided to check them out using the leaked BNP list (prior to fake news). Both addresses were on the list. I’m not in any way suggesting all flag fliers are of the far right persuasion. However, its become tainted, due to its selective use.
No they don't, that's the St George's flagUnfortunately because the woke brigade think it’s a racist statement.
It is, if it’s used for racist purposes.The Union Jack is not tainted.
It is, if it’s used for racist purposes.
Firstly, I’m not upset, I’m simply making an observation.Its a ludicrous circular argument. It's our national flag. Just because the odd racist might use it...so what. Just because the odd wokey like giro might get upset by it...so what
Life goes on
It's a union flag. It isn't used for racist purposes.
That’s exactly the point I’am meaning in my earlier comments.The use of the flag has, to a certain extent, hijacked its meaning. This continuous and boring use of the word “woke” has nothing to do with it.

What? The Politics board you want to cancel?Might be a good idea to move this thread onto the politics thread, that way we can stop mex trying to stir the pot over here. It’s clearly going to run and get spikey.
YepWhat? The Politics board you want to cancel?
That says more about you than it does me.
In what way have I gone on the attack? I’ve just made a point, based on experience.That’s exactly the point I’am meaning in my earlier comments.
Someone mentions the Union Jack and you go straight away on the attack mentioning the BNP.
Yer whatever.In what way have I gone on the attack? I’ve just made a point, based on experience.
Why don’t you develop a backbone and fly your flag proudly instead of whinging about itYer whatever.
Pop round to my house and you’ll see an England flag proudly on display.Why don’t you develop a backbone and fly your flag proudly instead of whinging about it
Hardly answers the question I posed?Yer whatever.
It is misrepresented though.The Union Jack is not tainted.
Looks like a scale model of Gibralter.
A much better choice of verb, than mineIt is misrepresented though.
So 2 racist mongs fly the union flag in the shithole that is Preston and it’s tainted. I would suggest that says more about Nobberland than it does the flag.The use of the flag has, to a certain extent, hijacked its meaning.

I’m happy to provide you with post codes of all racistSo 2 racist mongs fly the union flag in the shithole that is Preston and it’s tainted. I would suggest that says more about Nobberland than it does the flag.
When was the last time you went to an England game? 1975?Last time I went to an England game they were singing Ain't no black in the Union Jack.
Just saying...
Do you have postcodes of all murderers, pedophiles, druggies, rapists, as well?I’m happy to provide you with post codes of all racist
BNP members living in Blackpool, if you like? The only difference being, I don’t claim to know, which of them have flags. I’ll provide you with all Preston posts codes, as well, should you so wish.
He’ll have a fair proportion if he’s got those that were in the BNP.Do you have postcodes of all murderers, pedophiles, druggies, rapists, as well?
If he’s not a copper which we know he isn’t If he’s got access to BNP party members addresses it means only one thing for me and it’s not difficult to work it out.He’ll have a fair proportion of he’s got those that were in the BNP.
You’ve totally lost the plot!If he’s not a copper which we know he isn’t If he’s got access to BNP party members addresses it means only one thing for me and it’s not difficult to work it out.
Not following the BNP seemingly like others obviously do I didnt know that.Hutter.....BNP had it's membership list hacked and released onto the internet a few years back......You can use this hack to find fully paid up members of the BNP in your local area.....Or were you going to say Giro's a member of the BNP because he knows this....
It’s not difficult to work it out.
I haven’t got an issue and I’m not suggesting either of your assumptions. Please read what I actually wrote.Giro what is your issue? Are you saying if you fly a Union Jack from your property you are racist? Or are you saying the Union Jack flag itself is offensive and racist?
Your suggesting that if the far right use it, then it becomes tainted. Why do they get to decide the meaning of the flag?I haven’t got an issue and I’m not suggesting either of your assumptions. Please read what I actually wrote.
