You're doing a great job of challenging the stereotype of 'raise the colours' supporters there 'Cheeky'.

A quick Google search shows that that image comes from a French book of hours of the 15th century. So, that’s a page of a French book, written in Latin. From 600 years ago. Quite what that has to do with contemporary British discourse, is open to interpretation.

What is not open to interpretation is the character of those gathered outside hotels of late. They are of the same character as Mr. Cheeky.

this doesn't mean anything - it's a word salad with no reference to the topic at hand. And given the video I posted it's notable that you didn't reference it at all. The subject is the proliferation of weird intimidating Flag wavers.... 

 

As for me, I didn't vote Labour at last election, nor will I in next election (if I lived in a Labour/Tory/Reform marginal, that might be different)

I remember when "fly the flag" was the proud slogan of British Airways 

it all went pete tong when Concord was retired 😅

[Sephiroth]

I do worry English people are focusing on “the flag” and their own wistful nostalgia (how very English) rather than what’s happening with the flag in 2025

stop analysing it as the mere national flag and have a look at it for what it is - the useful tool of intimidation by some extremely dodgy people (see also the Irish tricolour when the IRA were active)

defeat the problem, then you can reclaim the flag 

pretending there is no problem whilst saying “it’s just a flag” is just…. Sigh

Unionists sometimes also paint the curbs (rwb) in Northern Ireland, much less than in the troubles.

Almost like there is a connection between excessive flag shaggery and violence
