  1. Patriotic?

    When did this mean right wing hooligans?

    They are not patriotic they are hooligans!

  2. Nobody should be getting attacked with petrol bombs for a flag.

  3. Absolutely disgusting that patriots are being attacked by TERRORISTS

    Police should be arresting TERRORISTS and protecting our PATRIOTS

  4. Seems a peaceful and reasoned response

    I think we should listen to the petrol bombers they clearly are on the right side

  6. I’m unsurprised that the loving, moral and tolerant left are attacking people putting up flags of the country they live in. I imagine if confronted they’d spout some bullshit about “Paradox of Tolerence” and how if they didn’t brutalize people putting up flags we’d have death camps within the week.

  7. I don’t know man, I think if you live in a country and you are upset and angered by seeing that nation’s flag to the point where you are attacking others, you should leave.

  11. What’s next. The poppy is a going to be the symbol for murder.

  12. Must be more to story surely, why are they even placing flags in these places?

  13. You notice petrol bombs is in quotes? That’s because there wasn’t multiple, not was it a petrol.bomb. It was however a glass bottle with a lit rag in it apparently, so not far off.

  14. They can afford to buy and waste petrol? And had petrol handy and waiting for flag raisers? Who are they?

  15. No excuse for using petrol bombs, even against the geebeebies thugs.

  16. I am not clicking on a GB News link, but something is suss here.

    No one is petrol bombing someone for flying the flag.

    Sure I am not a “flag waver” type, but petrol bombing for flying the flag, that is actually more insane than flag flying

  17. Anything sourced via GB News should be viewed with extreme suspicion.

  18. Story seems a tad bollocks to me, looks more like he was hot in the head by something but not a burning petrol bomb.

    Still wrong and the attacker should be charged if ever found

  19. Have heard that Britain First are behind this flags ‘campaign’?

  22. GB News? We’re linking that bullshit now, come on folks you can do better than that.

    Don’t let billionaire funded “news” that isn’t actually news for legal regulatory reasons sway your emotions without critical analysis. It’s nothing more than Fox News for the UK pushing right wing propaganda.

    Seek your news from sources that are at least RECOGNISED as official news media instead of this shite.

  23. it’s never just raising a flag though is it… it’s all the other disgusting shit that comes with it, masquerading as patriotism.
    happened near where my parents live. my mum has carers who visit 3 times daily – they are of African and Indian heritage… They were truly scared seeing the flags everywhere because they have been subjected to racism from the very same people that put the flags up… These women are working in a profession of caring for other people and they just have to put up with this pATriOisM bullshit.

    Fuck Farage and Fuck Tommy Robinson.

  25. Personally, I view the flag raisers in the same way a vigilante paedophile hunters – it is all performative and makes them feel better about themselves.
