    I’m not really against but I think instead we should just ban anyone over 60 from voting…

      Pretty sure he’s just some edgy teenager.

      He probably spent most of last month hanging flags upside down on lamp posts, and calling himself patriotic, it’s the sort of thing people like him do. Everyone else calls him a prat

        The funny thing is that the Union Jack is not quite symmetrical. You can hang it upside down, but it takes a very trained eye to see it’s upside down.

        That’s part of why ships fly a solid red flag with a Union Jack quarter, so it’s readily apparent when they are in distress.

          Never mind getting the Union Jack the right way up, at least some of those dumb fucks managed to paint the Danish flag on a roundabout because they forgot what the English one looks like

          The point is: the people hanging them on lampposts don’t know that, hence half of them being upside down.

          To be fair, as somebody who has put flags on lampposts, it’s slightly difficult to coordinate the flag orientation when you’re at the top of a ladder.
