If you want others to respect the flag, maybe respect it yourself. It’s not a scarf for a booze and coke fuelled self-pity party. Tragic fuckers.

I’ve recently lived in 2 countries big on their national flags. Everywhere. They respect their flags and have strict rules for their use. Flagpoles, for example. I didn’t see any looking like shit tea towels hanging from windows or graffiti-ed on council property.

Surely common sense is implementing the means to process immigrants asap so they can be quickly a) allowed to work and pay tax, or b) be chucked out. Anything else is self-defeating, more expensive and playing into the hands of goons. It’s almost like no one wants to sort it. 🤔
