Councils should not have Palestine Flag up
 
As it now represents Hamas


They are the Elected Power in Palestine
so it means Terrorism.


This is something Reform UK
Councils are doing,


The Public on Radio and TV agree,

Livia 06-05-2025 11:34 AM

The only flags that should be flown on public buildings are county and national flags. Flying other flags upsets some people, and not flying other flags upsets some other people. Make it clear which will be flown and no one's in any doubt.

It doesn't represent hamas, it is a way of showing support for Palestinians. Does the union Jack represent British terrorists?

Livia 06-05-2025 11:43 AM

British flag, on British soil.... representing British terrorists. LMFAO...

I mean, it sadly does increasingly represent ultranationalists. If I see someone with a Union Jack in their garden I ain't popping round for tea, put it that way. It's giving race riots and football hooliganism.

Good to see they’re focused on the real issues society faces, so much for freedom of speech and expression eh?

Livia 06-05-2025 11:50 AM

It's always the same people who claim our national flag is used by scum to further their racist aims. I live in the country, lots of UJs are flown quite innocently by patriots. But then and Irish person living in Portugal and a Scot are not the best people to decide which of us is racist.

...... and on this I now totally agree with your message there.
This move by Reform will soon spread likely to other emblems too, especially of peoples, cultures or issues they hold prejudice against.
In MY view.

They wont here. But of course in Palestine they are banned, yes.

Livia 06-05-2025 12:32 PM

The only things a council should be concerned with is serving the people who pay them for services through their council tax. Nothing else... no separate agendas, no political statements... bins emptied, roads repaired, the elderly and vulnerable children cared for, social housing etc... not international politics. If people want to represent foreign powers, do it in their own time at their own expense.

Why do you have to make it personal? Also you made it quite clear that you had me blocked and didn't want to interact with me, does me being right about so many things make you feel insecure?

That's your own ignorance, nothing else but your own ignorance..

Is that what you are like when you see a an Olympic winner celebrating the lap of honour draped in a union jack?

That wouldn't surprise me in the slightest Liam and it would be despicable.

Within days, showing their prejudicial ?dislike? ( I'm trying to be polite), of those of other Countries or cultures.
Setting out to divide and whip up negative feelings towards other Nations and other human beings.
It's REALLY sad to see support for their bigotry and prejudiced stance.

I'm afraid it's not "my ignorance" that's led to the GB flag being used as a nationalist symbol, you have the Brexit/Reform crowd to blame for that. It wasn't like this 10 years ago. What would you know about it anyway Parmy, "a Scot" can't comment on the UK flag apparently. Maybe it's just this Scot? Maybe it's less to do with being Scottish and more to do with struggling to accept differences of opinion :joker:. You're one of the good Scots Parmy, who is accepting of GB flag shagging. Congrats.

No because there's a reason for flying the flag then, unlike when Union Jacks are flown out of dirty bedroom windows propped up with a couple of stella cans.

Scotland is a much part of the UK as England, Livia. I imagine you don't agree but... oh well :). I wasn't commenting on the England flag.

...I will now though: people flying the England flag out their windows are definitely xenophobic and bigoted. With the UJ it's just "probably".

Wasnt like what 10 years ago?

You mentioned football fans, or giving football vibes when you see one in a garden... the english fans used to take the flag abroad, bur that stoppped well over ten years ago, all you see now is england flags..are they racist too?


All the Scots who fly the saltire, the nawbags, are they racist to..Is it ok to fly a Scotland flag out your window..


Or the Palestine flags we see draped from Windows in housing schemes across the UK, are they also racist?


Or are you that narrow minded that it's just anyone with a union jack in their gardens, wether you've met them or not that are racists..

So if you happen to watch a sporting event, say acwirod cup of football, and you see all the nation's who qualified, and their fans proudly waving their nation's flags during every game! Is it just the english fans you call racists and bigots?

Cause if you do it makes you the bigot, just like that fool above you who's arse you're kissing.
