🏴 These St George crosses! Painted St George crosses on roundabouts – honestly, where are our British standards for honouring the dragonslayer? By Steven Pottinger @bigstevepoet.bsky.social centralbylines.co.uk/opinion/thes...

At this point, I heartily advocate for the reintroduction of dragons. Fried gammon smells nice.

Be careful you can go to prison for saying things like that these days – however funny

Literally go to prison, just for saying your English!

Always loved that fact that the fascists who do this have no idea it’s rooted in modern day Turkey 🤣

Racists are not only twats, they also have no artistic skills.

Staggeringly bad photoshopping there.

Are these people acquainted with the correct dimensions of a simple fucking flag

As those George-crossed roundabouts are no longer legally normalized, can one ignore them ? 🤔

Are you referring to the old British Standard, as in the BS kitemark, or some sort of ‘british standards’ for honouring England’s patron saint?

The Highway Code is clear, if you see a racist painting a mini roundabout, you are allowed to squash their paint tin with your car

George, born in Turkey in 3rd century, not a knight, never fought a dragon nor set foot in this country - also patron saint in multiple other countries. Our flags have been demeaned since the BNP adopted the Union flag - now symbolic of little else than racism certainly not patriotism.

First of all these could be supporting The Red Cross. If it's supposed to be the St. George Cross then I would have thought it was denigrating the flag.

Loads of the same in Genoa this morning. Seemed fine.

So we’re supposed to drive over our national flag now (coz no-one actually goes in circles around those things now do they)…?

The Slayer of Dragons relegated to being remembered by village idiots scrawling half-a$$ed naff paintings on grubby roads.

How to dishonour our flag- allow traffic to run over it.

Isn't it illegal to paint on public roads?

Expecting the right wing press to scream that "going left at roundabouts, is woke" and that vehicles should "go right, on roundabouts ". Its the mantra, not the logic

We’ve got them on lines at junctions. Let’s drive over flags seems a tad unpatriotic.
