Why is it that now nearly every news broadcast shown from a senior Tories home or office, there is a flag of the Union in the room (I guess will be shortly followed by the Labour party)?
There was a time when we used to laugh at the American’s for their belief in the flag, flown from every house, used in every news shot, causing disgust when burnt by Jonny foreigner. We used to think it was due to the lack of self confidence in their country and lack of history.
I have as much respect for our flag (always have a tear in the eye when the flag is raised and the national anthem is played at the Olympics etc) as anyone else (even know when it’s being flown upside down unlike some on this board).
Surely we are not going to follow this sad trend?
