Most people do not share the political views and aims of Raise The Colours. Most people do not hate migrants. Most people do not want their neighbourhood covered in a sea of red, white and blue. What is so difficult to understand about this?

For decades UK politicians & the rw media have stoked racism by scapegoating migrants & minorities. For decades the far right have been thwarted in their attempts to turn this to their advantage. Now they are close to power & Starmer seems determined to help them over the line.

Calls to 'Stop the boats', claims that migrants are 'illegal and protests at asylum Hotels directly lead to racist attacks. And Farage, Badenoch and Starmer are feeding that hatred.

Last year, UK billionaires’ wealth grew by £35 million a day. Meanwhile, the fire service has been cut to the bone and is facing more cuts.
It's time for the richest in society to invest in public services through a wealth tax.

I don't think quoting legislation about what the council does or doesn't allow in terms of flag poles etc is an adequate or even helpful response to what is going on in the UK at the moment.
