I do understand that the far right stole the flag in the 70s, and I can see why people of my generation have a difficulty differentiating between patriotism and nationalism(in it's worst case).
However this has not stopped numerous organisations and bands trying to reclaim the flag which is something I applaud.
I personally do prefer the Flag of St George rather than the Union Flag but this has more to with aesthetics than politics.
