Rejected petition Citizens of the United Kingdom should be allowed to fly a union flag

I served my country and flew the Union Jack around the world to let people know the British are there for them. So why can't I fly it in my home country

This petition was rejected

Why was this petition rejected?

It’s not clear what the petition is asking the UK Government or Parliament to do.

Individuals, local council and other organizations may fly the Union Flag whenever they wish, as long as they comply with any local planning requirements. You can find more information about flying the Union Flag here:

We are therefore not sure what action you would like the Government or Parliament to take.

We only reject petitions that don’t meet the petition standards.
