"Labour, and indeed the nation, need a new flag to symbolise the glorious new age we will enter later this year when Sir Kier is crowned leader. What can we suggest?" I would suggest a union jack in pride colours, but some minority group will feel left out and kick off for being left out. So it has to be the white flag of surrender! | |||

"Wales was conquered by the English and should not be considered a separate country in the Union like Scotland. Imagine if the England football team had had the likes of Bale or Giggs in the past! Imagine the rugby team! Only joking my Welsh friends, only joking. "Would they even make it on the bench?  | |||

Would they even make it on the bench? "tbf neither bale nor Giggs play rugby. The bench feels fair. | |||

Or is it just an odd form of virtue signalling? I don't think any of the parties are more or less proud of their country than any of the others. Possibly proud (and less proud) about different things. | |||

"I thought it was a BNP leaflet when it came through the door. Really sad that the far right has hijacked the union flag." It's understandable to feel disappointed when national flags are used for divisive purposes, but I have heard this so many times and I just don't think it is true in terms of it has been hijacked.. The Union Flag, represents a diverse array of values and identities within our nation. Some may attempt to claim it for their own agenda, the flag itself encapsulates a spectrum of meanings, unity, history, and shared identity. It is used to celebrate across generations, from children to the elderly, as a symbol of national pride and unity during celebratory events, waving flags at parades, decorations during festivals, and displaying them at sporting events, people of all ages use the Union Flag to express their heritage and identity, far more frequently than the far right.... | |||

Be like saying you don't support your team because you don't wear their shirt about. My two main points are. 1) Labour haven't suddenly become more proud of more British because of their new leaflet campaign. 2) voting based simply on who is most proudest or most British feels an odd approach. My guess is it won't win extra votes. Maybe it will, maybe there's a positive anchor that will help unconsciously. Because the use does anchor. As another poster said, it looked a bit BNPish. Rightly or wrongly that's a reaction when the flag is used in political leaflets (context matters). So an bad feeling to anchor to for them. Maybe im applying too much anecdote on this. When the leaflet came thru I felt it was a cynical ploy. A minus. Maybe others have it a positive. | |||

And it doesnt feel that way during times of national celebration etc. But in the context of policial leaflets it has been used a lot by certain groups. That creates an anchoring. It's not saying that the flag is racist, or even feels racist. But for a split second I was expecting the leaflet to be from a more right leaning organisation. | |||

"Keir Starmer is facing discontent from Labour MPs over the dominant use of the union flag in election campaign material amid concern it may alienate ethnic minority voters and others Why does our flag offend so many people, but our benefits don’t. " Maybe Labour are using it to garner support from those considering the reform party by showing that they are happy to wave the flag of the nation without fear. They may have finally realised that hiding away from the flag does them no good and are finally promoting the country they will soon be leading | |||

"Just when you think that it's an easy win for Labour, they invent new ways to self-sabotage. When exactly did a national flag become a symbol of far-right or racism? These idiots who want to remove the flag will happily give their thumbs up if it was a Palestinian flag or a pride flag." I'm going to defend the Labour party on this one, could be a first... It isn't the labour party that has created the issue over the flag, it is those amongst us that are chipping away at the countries fabric, making any symbol of the UK a target for the types of comments we have seen. It is working too, plenty of people feeling guilty of getting behind the country, happier to throw the UK under the bus than be proud of it and grab a virtue signalling point while they are at it. | |||

My thoughts are that the press are not reporting this as they usually would but they are not, this is a shift in the press away from the tories, and back to Labour a party who u turn all the time. These councillors state that they no longer have free speech and left leaning M.Ps are being rejected for M.Ps with a more left leaning stance, they believe Labour are turning to the right. Which could mean right thinking politics in the future. Can I ask why is it always you two do you run this forum and no other view is allowed, in the past I have made comments which have come to pass, you will just have to wait until other media outlets are allowed to report the truth. | |||

I say you two and you turn up that's what I mean seeing as you only asked. As I say you will have to wait until the media are allowed to tell the truth of what labour have turned into. I cannot guide you to articles as there are few. And when you ask for were I get my info, you will just try and trash it. As I say the media will catch up, over 3 hundred thousand labour supporters have left the party, that kind of news is damaging to their up coming campaign as others will begin to see the light, so people will be kept in the dark until it is to late. Labour will get in and things will get worst civil liberties will be under further attack, those on benefits especially over fifties will be under attack by means of their benefits. If these things do not happen well then have your say or disprove what I have said either way I know what I know. because you do not is not my fault. | |||

"Just when you think that it's an easy win for Labour, they invent new ways to self-sabotage. When exactly did a national flag become a symbol of far-right or racism?

"Whilst you all have been debating this important issue, 20 Labour councillors in the NW have resigned and will stand as independents at the next election, sighting KS and his right wing intentions as the reason for these resignations. Ok back to flag waving. What’s your view on this? My thoughts are that the press are not reporting this as they usually would but they are not, this is a shift in the press away from the tories, and back to Labour a party who u turn all the time. These councillors state that they no longer have free speech and left leaning M.Ps are being rejected for M.Ps with a more left leaning stance, they believe Labour are turning to the right. Which could mean right thinking politics in the future. Can I ask why is it always you two do you run this forum and no other view is allowed, in the past I have made comments which have come to pass, you will just have to wait until other media outlets are allowed to report the truth. What do you mean it is always us two? I've only asked for a quote from the councillors. From what I've read it's to do with Labour's stance on Gaza, nothing to do with 'right leaning'. I say you two and you turn up that's what I mean seeing as you only asked. As I say you will have to wait until the media are allowed to tell the truth of what labour have turned into. I cannot guide you to articles as there are few. And when you ask for were I get my info, you will just try and trash it. As I say the media will catch up, over 3 hundred thousand labour supporters have left the party, that kind of news is damaging to their up coming campaign as others will begin to see the light, so people will be kept in the dark until it is to late. Labour will get in and things will get worst civil liberties will be under further attack, those on benefits especially over fifties will be under attack by means of their benefits. If these things do not happen well then have your say or disprove what I have said either way I know what I know. because you do not is not my fault." Of course I turn up, it was aimed at me. Should I not comment on a public forum? You've gone on a massive rant there without providing any sources again. Not to worry, you know what you know, the rest of us can just keep guessing. | |||

If you’re aware of a wider social view other than the one you prescribe to, you will know the answer to this as it has recently been reported on. | |||
