Comment on Great British Railways flies the flag as logo goes back to the future

ministers making sure they never had a photo taken in their office without a big flag over their shoulder.

This happened all over the world. Not just the UK. Have a look at any EU country where they proudly showcase bothe their nation’s flag as well as the EU one “over their shoulder”. I suppose they’re also wrong 😄?

  It absolutely did not start here only after Brexit.

  You’re right. Here’s Tony Blair and George Bush Junior discussing plans for Iraq post Brexit draped with flags 🥲.

    A bad faith comment because you can’t possibly think moments of international diplomacy are the same.

    😅 this is going to turn into a “what have the Romans ever done for us” sketch, right?
    
    We never used to use flags before Brexit
    
    Here’s us using flags before Brexit.
    
    Well apart from that…

Just because the rest of the world does something it doesn’t mean we should be doing it too. It has been noticed as a new trend.
