Re: Is flying the national flag racist?
Don't forget Jaysay, it was that Tory faggot Heath who took us in to the Common Market and that Tory wastrel Major who signed us up in Maastricht in '92 for the EU.

That's probably because he's a spineless pillock who spends his time in bed with his public school boy bum-chum and British Europhile No 1, the scumbag Clegg.

Remember Lisbon and the referendum that was promised on the Constitution?

Re: Is flying the national flag racist?
Let's face it, all three major parties are in favour of a United States of Europe. They're quite entitled to pursue that policy, of course, but with such a major transfer of power, surely the British people should be consulted? A referendum is the obvious answer...I wonder why Cameron, like Brown before him, hasn't got the bottle to do it? I thought he was all for transferring power back to the people?

Re: Is flying the national flag racist?
The question cannot be answered satisfactorily for everyone. I suggest that if one doesn't like to see the national flag of the country in which one is living flying, one moves to a country where one either does like seeing, or doesn't mind seeing, the national flag of that country flying.

I bet Your old boss Winston Churchill, (I wonder why his mum named him after a black feller?), is spinning in his grave four, or so years in charge of a country standing alone against tyranny, all his stirring speeches wasted, because now we are being given freely to the same Fascists!

That's exactly what my Father said Less, he always said that he and millions more like him put there lives on the line (some never to return, and he was badly wounded) to keep Hitler at bay, now Germany aided by France are being given on a plate what Hitler failed to achieve 70 years ago
