Monkeys Fist 41337 Posted June 10, 2010 Share Posted June 10, 2010 Cameron is flying a Cross of St. George over 10 Downing St. during the world cup. The colonys are all kicking off about it. Can't see a problem myself. If Scotland flew a saltire over Holyrood that'd be fine by me. They'd have to qualify for the W/C of course, so it's a hypothetical situation, but there you go.

Not that I'm arsed but I guess Downing Street is the home of the prime minister and chancellor who represent the whole of the UK, not just England. So, in the bizarre circumstance that Scotland qualified and England didn't, would you want to see a St Andrew's cross flying over Downing street? I imagine a lot would. Thinkits a bit naff and he's obviously just being popularist in any case. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Union flag isnt representitive of this world cup. Would the Scottish Parliment have the St George Cross on it seeing as they are not in the WC? Don't see the issue myself.

Perhaps I should've put this on Stevies Sensitive People thread. It's only a flag ffs. If Scotland, Wales or Norn Ireland were there, I'd have no problem at all with their respective flags being flown over No.10. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I'm not losing sleep over it either Renton, what does bug me slightly is that whenever something like this involving the English Flag happens, the lemon suckers jump on it like it's the most offensive thing they've ever seen. Plays into the hands of the far right and their hijacking of the flag. It'd be interesting to hear any of the Irish, Scots or Welsh lad's opinion?

Guest alex Posted June 10, 2010 Share Posted June 10, 2010 Btw, I heard someone (in Norfolk I think) had painted a St. George's Cross on the side on their pub. The pub's a listed building so the landlord was told by the council he had to paint over it. However, he's got 8 weeks to do it. Nice to hear a bit of commonsense prevailing for once.
