SugarPlum 6 Posted April 27, 2011 Author Share Posted April 27, 2011 There's no need for a witch hunt. It's expected that somebody would complain particularly if they felt it appropriate to fly a tricolour in defiance of the union flag. It's the fact that MANAGEMENT decided to remove the "offending" items. That's where the real problem is. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
bombaybadboy08 15,660 Posted April 27, 2011 Share Posted April 27, 2011 Speaking personally,I'm going to rip the arse right out this Royal Wedding.I won't be made to feel like an outsider in my own country.Union Flags galore. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Budswiser 196 Posted April 27, 2011 Share Posted April 27, 2011 Show me these alleged "direct connotations" The direct connotations are that Ceptic fans dont recognise them therefore anything that offends the great offended are automatically secterian. This country is now officially out of control. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Caddy 7 Posted April 27, 2011 Share Posted April 27, 2011 That's literally the most fucked up thing I've ever heard. Union jacks are connected to sectarianism? It's best not to have them flying.....even on a week where there is a British Royal fucking Wedding? What the fucking fuck?Why are people so dumb?

Steg-il Ostenstad 11 Posted April 27, 2011 Share Posted April 27, 2011 Makes me glad i live down in Yorkshire now, i'll be able to fly my Union Flag with pride!!Ive bought my last Chocolate Digestive off those cunts though, its Tesco's own brand all the way. Sure they taste rotten.....but the moral high-ground will make them taste sweeter than ever before! Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
bombaybadboy08 15,660 Posted April 27, 2011 Share Posted April 27, 2011 Do you think we could go over to Ireland for St Patrick's Day and act offended and threaten to wave Union Flags?Britain,the friendliest nation in the World.You can come over here and take our benefits,houses and even burn our flag on the streets if you like Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
1st_Jan_1994 4,868 Posted April 27, 2011 Share Posted April 27, 2011 We should all e mail them asking what the "direct connotations" are in respect of the Union flag.And then boycott their biscuits.http://www.unitedbiscuits.com/contact.phpHere's what I put (I had to keep editing, due to 500 characters limit)I read with absolute disgust this morning that staff were ordered to take down the Union Flag as part of the countries upcoming Royal Wedding celebrations. The reason mooted was "sectarianism" This takes the biscuit. Pun indented. I've never felt so disgusted in all my life. All you have done is pander to a bigoted minority and played your part in the bigotry problem yourself's.The REAL bigots are the ones who took down the Union Flag.For the record I'm not a football supporter, I'm a patriotic Scot & Brit and your actions are shameful.McVitie's - part of the bigotry problem. I will think twice about buying any of your brands again. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

KingThistle 1 Posted April 27, 2011 Share Posted April 27, 2011 Shows the world how feckin thick the MOPE tims are and to be honest the bosses should have told them to fec right off. Everyone i have spoke down here has be of the mind the tims are mentalist and this only helps to enforce the view that they dont live on the same planet as the rest of society. I ams sure many creeds have helped to embrace the spirit and put flags up without feeling oppressed by the national flag of the UK. Pretty sure ou could go round the world and find flags flying in celebration of this wedding.She and her likes are bigots end off. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

gordo7 147 Posted April 27, 2011 Share Posted April 27, 2011 WTF. Absolutely mind blowing. As people have said, this is the only place where flying your national flag is frowned upon. If they don't like our flag, tough shit. This is the UK, not Ireland. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
