All races all genders all religions. We just take pride UK chooses not to. Not that hard to figure out. Fly it or don't individual choice.that’s because your not ashamed to love your country and celebrate your history it’s a great thing
Do you have to fly a flag to prove you love your country?
Some would argue, that those who challenge the narrative and question their government, instead of insisting their country is perfect, actually love their country more.so do you think you love your country more than some people on here then ?
I have no clue how much anyone on here loves their country."so you can’t tell by there posts on here then ? | |||

"The flag of Hawaii must piss some Americans off! Lol probably. Time to cancel culture it
The Americans don’t love their flag as much as the North Koreans .
Because they are forced to love it. That is a major difference.
Nah, they are just more patriotic than Americans, they adore their leaders
Once again forced to love their leaders. Still a major difference. No one forcing anyone to fly your flags it's a individual choice.
Independence day great day flags everywhere. Symbolism against tyranny. Fireworks flags parades bbqs bands. Good time. North korea hold flag wave for media or die.
North Korea put you to shame, they really know how to show their flag love, in comparison , Americans are amateurs .
True. But we fly ours without complaints and the threat of government control. Individuality not a hive mentality.
If you Google "United States Flag Code" there are a load of laws around it.

I would say no, a number of people profess love of their country but how does one actually measure that? Is it fealty? "Same as alot of men with sports teams. Fealty no different . Colors pride a sense of belonging with what your individual like and dislikes are. Don't like your country your choice. Like your country your choice. Love your country your choice. Otherwise sporting events and countries cannot identify who is who and what they stand for. | |||

"After having the Union Jack behind every M.P. It now must be flown from every Government Building. What's next to bring the country together? Children singing allegiance to Bojo every morning or wearing Union Jack shorts abroad to help heal relations after brexit? I see you live in Spain, ever tried looking at the municipal buildings and Guardia civil stations ? they fly the Spanish flag every day do you moan about them too?
Nope, but then I'm not embarrassed by what it stands for. It is usually flown at the same height as the Regions flag and the European flag. Bojo has insisted the UK fly their rag higher than all others, obviously as it's 'world beating'.

To a lesser extent I feel the Union Jack has been hijacked by the Tories and wouldn't want to be waving that about either. It's not the 400+ years history it's the political jingoism that it is currently being used for I hate.
Agreed, I believe a lot of Germans loved their country & its flag during National Socialism - that went well...
And yet the union jack defended against that tyranny.
Last time I looked,a flag didnt win the war.
No the troops representing that flag and were sent home under it did. But I know you can not comprehend that. Too political for you. I have more respect for your flag then you do.
By that token..the hammer and sickle also won the war.
You have a very simplistic view of history.
When the Spanish civil war was being fought many volunteers from england fought against the fascists, despite this country sitting back and watching.. what flag did they represent?
And what flag did the fly tigers represent? The did not come home dead under a chinese flag. I understand you have 0 sense of duty except your own interpretation. But hey maybe I am wrong but out respect for families that gave thier sons and daughters for the same values you scream about from your soapbox that paid a sacrafice you are unwilling to do. I'll fly my flags high and with respect. "You can always tell when your question isnt going to be answered. Just because where you come from wrapping yourself in a flag is the same as your family,doesnt apply to everyone. | |||

Nope, but then I'm not embarrassed by what it stands for. It is usually flown at the same height as the Regions flag and the European flag.

And what flag did the fly tigers represent? The did not come home dead under a chinese flag. I understand you have 0 sense of duty except your own interpretation. But hey maybe I am wrong but out respect for families that gave thier sons and daughters for the same values you scream about from your soapbox that paid a sacrafice you are unwilling to do. I'll fly my flags high and with respect.
It is worth being clear of the difference being proud of the people who defend our culture and the idiots who run the country! Boris does not defend our culture, he breaks it I think we are discussing flags.
Flying a flag does not mean you are proud or not, the Govt are ‘virtue signalling’, which I believe is generally regarded as ‘a bit woke’
So government vehicles flying their perspective flags in a warzone is technically "virtue" signalling ? Not identity ? "Unlike the US we generally don’t go overboard on flags everywhere. As far as I know the Health Minister does not sit in a warzone, so your passion is not necessary in this instance. | |||

"After having the Union Jack behind every M.P. It now must be flown from every Government Building. What's next to bring the country together? Children singing allegiance to Bojo every morning or wearing Union Jack shorts abroad to help heal relations after brexit? I see you live in Spain, ever tried looking at the municipal buildings and Guardia civil stations ? they fly the Spanish flag every day do you moan about them too?
Nope, but then I'm not embarrassed by what it stands for. It is usually flown at the same height as the Regions flag and the European flag. Bojo has insisted the UK fly their rag higher than all others, obviously as it's 'world beating'. Why are you embarrassed by the union jack what is your interpretation of what it stands for? to me its a national flag just like any other.
The swastika used to be a symbol for well being, and is a few 1000 years old. However since it was hijacked by Adolf, I would feel uncomfortable waving it about. To a lesser extent I feel the Union Jack has been hijacked by the Tories and wouldn't want to be waving that about either. It's not the 400+ years history it's the political jingoism that it is currently being used for I hate.
Agreed, I believe a lot of Germans loved their country & its flag during National Socialism - that went well...
And yet the union jack defended against that tyranny.
Last time I looked,a flag didnt win the war.
No the troops representing that flag and were sent home under it did. But I know you can not comprehend that. Too political for you. I have more respect for your flag then you do.
By that token..the hammer and sickle also won the war.

This is nothing about anyone on Fab being patriotic or not, it is about sham nationalism from virtue signalling politicians who couldn’t care less if people died for their country - just ask the famillies of the 125,000 Covid dead.

It's not the 400+ years history it's the political jingoism that it is currently being used for I hate.
Agreed, I believe a lot of Germans loved their country & its flag during National Socialism - that went well...
And yet the union jack defended against that tyranny.
Last time I looked,a flag didnt win the war.
No the troops representing that flag and were sent home under it did. But I know you can not comprehend that. Too political for you. I have more respect for your flag then you do.
By that token..the hammer and sickle also won the war.
You have a very simplistic view of history.
When the Spanish civil war was being fought many volunteers from england fought against the fascists, despite this country sitting back and watching.. what flag did they represent?
And what flag did the fly tigers represent? The did not come home dead under a chinese flag. I understand you have 0 sense of duty except your own interpretation. But hey maybe I am wrong but out respect for families that gave thier sons and daughters for the same values you scream about from your soapbox that paid a sacrafice you are unwilling to do. I'll fly my flags high and with respect.
It is worth being clear of the difference being proud of the people who defend our culture and the idiots who run the country! Boris does not defend our culture, he breaks it I think we are discussing flags.
Flying a flag does not mean you are proud or not, the Govt are ‘virtue signalling’, which I believe is generally regarded as ‘a bit woke’
So government vehicles flying their perspective flags in a warzone is technically "virtue" signalling ? Not identity ?
Unlike the US we generally don’t go overboard on flags everywhere. As far as I know the Health Minister does not sit in a warzone, so your passion is not necessary in this instance.
It is because I watched served with UK troops. Same self pride in their country are they wrong ? They volunteer to possibly die. They get my full respect they are not forced into conscription they do it for honor pride and guess what country. Your flag means as much to them as ours means to me.
Indeed it does & not one of them will respect a Govt that pretends to love the flag & country whilst reducing the size of the armed forces (which was not in their manifesto to do). This is nothing about anyone on Fab being patriotic or not, it is about sham nationalism from virtue signalling politicians who couldn’t care less if people died for their country - just ask the famillies of the 125,000 Covid dead. Boris did nothing to help them."The timing of all this flag waving is extremely suspicious. | |||

"After having the Union Jack behind every M.P. It now must be flown from every Government Building. What's next to bring the country together? Children singing allegiance to Bojo every morning or wearing Union Jack shorts abroad to help heal relations after brexit? I see you live in Spain, ever tried looking at the municipal buildings and Guardia civil stations ? they fly the Spanish flag every day do you moan about them too?
Nope, but then I'm not embarrassed by what it stands for. It is usually flown at the same height as the Regions flag and the European flag. Bojo has insisted the UK fly their rag higher than all others, obviously as it's 'world beating'. Why are you embarrassed by the union jack what is your interpretation of what it stands for? to me its a national flag just like any other.

Children singing allegiance to Bojo every morning or wearing Union Jack shorts abroad to help heal relations after brexit? I see you live in Spain, ever tried looking at the municipal buildings and Guardia civil stations ? they fly the Spanish flag every day do you moan about them too?
Nope, but then I'm not embarrassed by what it stands for. It is usually flown at the same height as the Regions flag and the European flag. Bojo has insisted the UK fly their rag higher than all others, obviously as it's 'world beating'. Why are you embarrassed by the union jack what is your interpretation of what it stands for? to me its a national flag just like any other.
The swastika used to be a symbol for well being, and is a few 1000 years old. However since it was hijacked by Adolf, I would feel uncomfortable waving it about. To a lesser extent I feel the Union Jack has been hijacked by the Tories and wouldn't want to be waving that about either. It's not the 400+ years history it's the political jingoism that it is currently being used for I hate.
Agreed, I believe a lot of Germans loved their country & its flag during National Socialism - that went well...
And yet the union jack defended against that tyranny.
Last time I looked,a flag didnt win the war.
No the troops representing that flag and were sent home under it did. But I know you can not comprehend that. Too political for you. I have more respect for your flag then you do.
By that token..the hammer and sickle also won the war.
You have a very simplistic view of history.
When the Spanish civil war was being fought many volunteers from england fought against the fascists, despite this country sitting back and watching.. what flag did they represent?
And what flag did the fly tigers represent? The did not come home dead under a chinese flag. I understand you have 0 sense of duty except your own interpretation. But hey maybe I am wrong but out respect for families that gave thier sons and daughters for the same values you scream about from your soapbox that paid a sacrafice you are unwilling to do. I'll fly my flags high and with respect.
It is worth being clear of the difference being proud of the people who defend our culture and the idiots who run the country! Boris does not defend our culture, he breaks it I think we are discussing flags.
Flying a flag does not mean you are proud or not, the Govt are ‘virtue signalling’, which I believe is generally regarded as ‘a bit woke’
So government vehicles flying their perspective flags in a warzone is technically "virtue" signalling ? Not identity ?
Unlike the US we generally don’t go overboard on flags everywhere. As far as I know the Health Minister does not sit in a warzone, so your passion is not necessary in this instance.
It is because I watched served with UK troops. Same self pride in their country are they wrong ? They volunteer to possibly die. They get my full respect they are not forced into conscription they do it for honor pride and guess what country. Your flag means as much to them as ours means to me.
Indeed it does & not one of them will respect a Govt that pretends to love the flag & country whilst reducing the size of the armed forces (which was not in their manifesto to do). This is nothing about anyone on Fab being patriotic or not, it is about sham nationalism from virtue signalling politicians who couldn’t care less if people died for their country - just ask the famillies of the 125,000 Covid dead. Boris did nothing to help them.over the top me thinks lol
The flag waving I assume you mean no the part about politians couldn’t care less of people die
I think pretty much every soldier is patriotic to the flag, but I’m also pretty sure most if not all think politicians are complete tossers. Losing 15% of your work colleagues to job reduction isn’t going to help change that view.
The Govt is just indulging in faux nationalism. 1 year ago, they wanted the Cheltenham Gold Cup & herd immunity which killed a lot of people - not exactly caring about people then, were they? most people think they are tossers but to think they don’t care about people’s lives is a bit silly "What evidence do you have that shows they care about ordinary peoples lives? | |||

It is because I watched served with UK troops. Same self pride in their country are they wrong ? They volunteer to possibly die. They get my full respect they are not forced into conscription they do it for honor pride and guess what country. Your flag means as much to them as ours means to me.
Indeed it does & not one of them will respect a Govt that pretends to love the flag & country whilst reducing the size of the armed forces (which was not in their manifesto to do). This is nothing about anyone on Fab being patriotic or not, it is about sham nationalism from virtue signalling politicians who couldn’t care less if people died for their country - just ask the famillies of the 125,000 Covid dead. Boris did nothing to help them.over the top me thinks lol
The flag waving I assume you mean no the part about politians couldn’t care less of people die
I think pretty much every soldier is patriotic to the flag, but I’m also pretty sure most if not all think politicians are complete tossers. Losing 15% of your work colleagues to job reduction isn’t going to help change that view.
The Govt is just indulging in faux nationalism. 1 year ago, they wanted the Cheltenham Gold Cup & herd immunity which killed a lot of people - not exactly caring about people then, were they? most people think they are tossers but to think they don’t care about people’s lives is a bit silly
What evidence do you have that shows they care about ordinary peoples lives? ofcorse they fucking care maybe there shit at there jobs but everyone cares about people dying
It is really quite sweet that you think they care. it is really disturbing that you think that they don’t care about people dying lol"As I have pointed out in many post the Govt did a great job of ordering the Vaccines ahead of others - fair play. They did a bad job in the following: Not looking at or learning from Cygnus Not having in stock PPE Not having in stock Ventilators Not stopping Air Travel Not stopping Cheltenham Letting their mates who have never produced PPE have a go & pocket £100m’s Not having a Plan, sorry, having many Plans but not adhering to any one of them Not attending Cobra meetings Employing Cummings Having a father who breaks the rules Having one set of rules for us & another for those downstairs Spending £37bn on Test & Who knows where they are (used to be Trace, but ASA said their was no evidence of this) ...as naseum. If they actually cared, instead of a cheap clap, they’d move heaven & earth to pay the NHS properly - I mean 2 planes, one house redesign and a Russian makeover for the media room were achieved... | |||

"After having the Union Jack behind every M.P. It now must be flown from every Government Building. What's next to bring the country together? Children singing allegiance to Bojo every morning or wearing Union Jack shorts abroad to help heal relations after brexit? I see you live in Spain, ever tried looking at the municipal buildings and Guardia civil stations ? they fly the Spanish flag every day do you moan about them too?
Nope, but then I'm not embarrassed by what it stands for. It is usually flown at the same height as the Regions flag and the European flag. Bojo has insisted the UK fly their rag higher than all others, obviously as it's 'world beating'. Why are you embarrassed by the union jack what is your interpretation of what it stands for? to me its a national flag just like any other.
The swastika used to be a symbol for well being, and is a few 1000 years old. However since it was hijacked by Adolf, I would feel uncomfortable waving it about. To a lesser extent I feel the Union Jack has been hijacked by the Tories and wouldn't want to be waving that about either. It's not the 400+ years history it's the political jingoism that it is currently being used for I hate.
Agreed, I believe a lot of Germans loved their country & its flag during National Socialism - that went well...
And yet the union jack defended against that tyranny.
Last time I looked,a flag didnt win the war.
No the troops representing that flag and were sent home under it did. But I know you can not comprehend that. Too political for you. I have more respect for your flag then you do.
By that token..the hammer and sickle also won the war.
You have a very simplistic view of history.
When the Spanish civil war was being fought many volunteers from england fought against the fascists, despite this country sitting back and watching.. what flag did they represent?
And what flag did the fly tigers represent? The did not come home dead under a chinese flag. I understand you have 0 sense of duty except your own interpretation. But hey maybe I am wrong but out respect for families that gave thier sons and daughters for the same values you scream about from your soapbox that paid a sacrafice you are unwilling to do. I'll fly my flags high and with respect.
It is worth being clear of the difference being proud of the people who defend our culture and the idiots who run the country! Boris does not defend our culture, he breaks it I think we are discussing flags.
Flying a flag does not mean you are proud or not, the Govt are ‘virtue signalling’, which I believe is generally regarded as ‘a bit woke’

(interesting to note, like so many other things these days, Labour can't quite decide which side of the fence to be on )
