In this country, some absolute k nobs say the St George flag is racist, and the woke brigade will do everything to rock the boat. If two gays want to swing from the lamp shades then that's up to them but rainbow this and rainbow that - keep it out of football FFS! What next pink tennis balls at Wimbledon?

The Government should have some balls and demand this flag is flown from every government/council building and if someone does not like it - they can resign or live elsewhere!
I live in London, with every race, religion, nationality you can think of. And I mix with a lot of different people. I don't know anyone who is offended by our flag. In fact, I reckon absolutely nobody reading this post will know anyone who is offended by our flag.

There might be a very small number of people in the country who are, and the press always seem to find them and amplify their voices. To provoke outrage like this. These people who are offended are such a small minority, it's not worth thinking about.

I genuinely think there's more to worry about than changing the colour of the flag - and the price of the kit is a good start.

I would genuinely rather the topic of political conversation be more about how we can improve the standard of living in this country, instead of what colour a flag is on the back of a football shirt.
