Rejected petition Fly the British Flag Be Proud to be British

We call on the Government to show we are proud of our British Flag and fly it from every school, University, Public building, Town Halls, and any other building that wishes to. That our Police and Armed forces display it on their uniforms. It causes us offence to hide it.

More details

For a while now the Police Armed Forces and other bodies have been told not to fly or wear the British Flag in case it causes offence. Anyone who lives in this Country should not be offended by the flag of the Country.
