Comment on Council removes almost 1,000 flags from Derby streets
1rre@discuss.tchncs.de 2 days agoFlags on lampposts isn’t seen to be an issue anywhere else. There’s also (as far as I’m aware) no reported issues of flags flying down, regardless of whether it causes accidents. Even then, if it’s not well secured, remove it or tie it properly, otherwise leave it, it’s the same amount of effort if not less than removing it.

Flying a flag isn’t patriotism though, it’s virtue signalling. Virtue signalling on the behalf of racist agitators.
Also, the vast majority of these flags are made from polyester or nylon, neither of which are good for the environment so why should they be tolerated to be littered everywhere? We wouldn’t tolerate bin bags being littered everywhere, but because they’re colourful bin bags it’s fine?
