The English flag is the Cross of St George, the Cross of St Andrew inspired the Scottish Saltire, and the Cross of St Patrick represents Ireland. All three, when combined, form the Union Flag.
The Union Jack Flag, small flag was mounted on the front of a warship |

"Every other country is proud to fly their flag, why are we so pc about it?"
Being British means we distrust overt displays of shallow nationalism.
Royal Weddings,Funerals and international sport by all means get the flags out but for the rest of the time no thanks.
We are not Americans who have to drape themselves in the flag every chance they get. |

It’s not just Americans. Flags are flown in France, Spain, Italy, Germany, Norway, Finland, Denmark. It seems it’s just the British who are prudish over their flag. |

We lived in Skiathos for 10 years. The Greek flag is flown everywhere. |

We have a black Country flag here and a lovely black lady politican once elected tried to get the flag removed saying as it had the colours black and red with chains on it she wanted it no longer in use as it represents sla.very,
She was put in her place the fag has nothing to do with sla.very it was to do with the skies as the chain furnaces turned it black and red, woke behaviour looking for something that wasn't there just to stir up shit |

I like to see it flying but I’m not American so I don’t expect to see it at every street corner. |

Why do you think this is an example of PC? Do you think there are people who want to fly a Union flag but decide not to, to avoid some spurious made up offence?
Get to Wales, you’ll see Welsh flags everywhere.

Tom want to Wales once Batty and the only Welsh flag he noticed was a kitchen towel with the Welsh flag emblem
They use the Welsh flag to dry their dishes but to be fair the average Welsh family are poor by English standards |

"We have a black Country flag here
I didn't realise that the flag was only designed in 2012 by an 11 year old. I previously thought it was historic. "
Yeah itvwas to unify all the black Country Walsall wolves west brom Tipton dudley and more, but apparently an 11 yo did it with rac ism in mind when she did it, go figure |

"Because it's been used by thugs to push their small minded racism.
So when the British Olympic athlete wins a medal should they not raise the Union Flag be because a few idiots use it"
Oh remember its racist to have St George's parade and fly the St George's cross as its a symbol of hate and was used in the crusades |

The Palestinian flag attached to the lamppost flying on the motorway/main road into Birmingham is offensive to me. I often wondered if I put an Israeli flag along side it or a Union Jack, would I be stopped or what abuse I would get… and yet no one has the balls to remove the flag of Hamas |

The Palestine and the hamas flag are different, there's loads up in Birmingham attached to hundreds of lamp posts, go round the ring road by the blues ground and boardsley green |

Does anyone actually say a St George's day parade is racist or are people feeling downtrodden by their own perceptions?

(Tomble, the average Welsh family is poorer than the average English family. But at least they can spot the myriad of Welsh flags flying and not just see a tea towel.) |

The local council remove them, but they are replaced almost immediately. I think there is a flag printer in alum rock who’s just ordered a new Ferrari…  |

Stone Cross West Bromwich used to always have one. But it was accused of being racist for the St George's cross being flown, some people now see it as a swas tika and no I don't mean foreign people I refer to the far left and angry karens |
