Cut them with scissors near the knot where there's little tension in the balloon. Will deflate without popping and no need to faff with tape.

I'd love to believe this Ian, but you look at Brexit and the way Reform are leading the polls - you have to think the British public want what Reform are offering.

They’ve gone up in our village this week. Two of us questioned this on the village Facebook group and have so far been called traitors and bigots. Some flags got taken down the other night and we were blamed on the group.
