Cross of St George flag banned in Barking

Interesting to note that BNP got the best reult of the night on Thursday in Barking with 11 councillors elected.

If the ethnic minorities, they can leave. Flights do not cost much in this, the year of 2006. No one is forcing them to stand in front of the flag for hours on end, are they. I think that anyone in the UK should be allowed to fly the English flag if they want to. And anyway, in this particular situation, the firemen are flying the flag for a sports reason. They want to show their support for the England team, and the English flag is a clear representation of England, so the firemen are merely showing their support. If the minorities dont like it, they should either ignore it, or if it offends them that much, go home. For goodness sake, they are living in ENGLAND after all. all Englishmen should have the right to fly the English flag whenever they want. Let the firemen fly the flag

I don't think any ethnic minorities dislike the flag. New Labour need to encourage their voters, therefore they want to help the BNP so Labour voters will vote Labour to stop the BNP.
Amazingly cynical but that is new Labour.

Yeh they probably are, but even so, the politicians worry far too much about what minorities think and want and not enough about what the majority want.

Honestly how stupid are they, i mean if your trying to stop the BNP why then go and do this? I mean how much are they trying to provoke the voters to turn to the BNP. Idiots. But i agree with the sentiments given above, if they dont like it go back to where you came from.

Union flag includes Ireland, which is not part of GB. Since 26 counties of Ireland have seceded the flag doesn't cover all of the British Isles.
