We have just started to decorate our hovels out here in sunny Afghanistan, but we are having a bit of trouble with the Yanks, they keep thinking we are a medical centre.

I am English, was born here and have lived here all my life, and I think it's about time we English stopped apologising for being ...ENGLISH.... seikhs have their insignia on their number plates, windows n stuff, muslims have excerpts of the koran on there rear view mirrors, I see India and Pakistan flags displayed proudly during the cricket and Jamaicans practically dress in their national colours... Who cares what is displayed or where.... As long as everybody can do it and it is not directly offending anyone else (bleeding heart liberals excluded breathing has been known to offend them!) We have Black pride, Scottish pride, Welsh pride even Gay pride , but English pride? no way I might offend a multi faithed disabled lesbian with homicidal tendancies somewhere in outer mongolia and she has her rights!!! LOL rant over, soap box returned to disgruntled Green grocer and Valium taken ....

I must admit it makes me laugh when you hear all these folk down here being told by their bosses that they can't fly the flag of their country, 'in case it offends people'!!
Why would it offend anyone? You can bet your bottom dollar that no-one has even complained, but they ban it anyway!
I take it, being Scottish, I'm supposed to one of those on the 'offended bus' when I see an England flag flying from a car or an office building or a house......well I'm not lol.
Fly your flags, be proud of where you come from and don't be afraid to show it!

I'm not supporting you in the World Cup tho!!!

it probably would be an offence to fly the scottish colours on cars,it aint been seen in a long time people will mistake it for the confederate flag of the southern states in the civil war.

Is that right?!
You'd have to be thick to confuse the two flags.

One of my neighbours has so many england flags on his car

I think if the wind gets up it may just fly off ( I can live in hope )

Then I won't have to listen to all the clanking noises when he starts it up in a morning

Maybe the flags are some method of stabilizing it

I dont know which group anyone complaining about the flying of the flag is claiming to represent, but I say fly your flag, whatever that is, with pride.

I think there used to be an issue where the flag was hijacked by a certain element and used to beat people over the head with. But the best way to combat that is for everyone to fly the flag with pride, and dont let anyone abuse it for their own ends.

If anything I dont think we do enough flag waving in this country, we need to do it more and start believing in ourselves. We are not perfect, but there are a lot of things we do well.

In the end I just think it is really scally! Honesty is a good option. Tell me I am wrong... I am part scottish and part englisdh but love england too bits... I am one for supporting my nation but when someone completely overdoes it, and changes their lawn to an england flag then it aint right. A little is a lot... or has that bypassed people.

Just like those who over do it on christmas and use enough energy to keep Las Vegas going for the next 10 years. Come on... want some good arguments on this.

Missgp No one celebrates St Georges day because people are scared of being called racist by the left who have always had a anti English agenda...

missgp a few people on this thread had already stated that they had flags up for St Georges day, myself being one of them. British by birth, English by the grace of God.

I havn't been off to see Liz and Phil recently, but just sent a text telling them that they must stick a flag or two up on their London pad and also on the flat in Windsor. She's going to make sure Charlie has 2 up on his Discovery.
Tony is going to remind John that his twin Jags should also be flying a couple as well. One must get this right, mustn't one.

Flags on car doors should be banned without a doubt. How many horses and riders get injured do you think when their spooked my those silly flags on cars?
I'm english born and bred and proud of it. But i wont be sporting a flag on my car or my house. I've no need to prove how patriotic i am to anybody.

I 'm told that Edinburgh University have carried out research into the size of the male appendage and discovered that the more white flags with red crosses a person has on their car, the smaller it is. So be warned !

My dad hasn't got any flags on his car and has an extremely small c0ck...so that blows that theory right out of the water.
