  1. can we have a smattering of Scottish and Welsh flag ones as well please?

  2. Not only will this fail to fix anything to do with the economy, the NHS, crime levels, but it doesn’t even do anything to fix their one and only concern – immigration.

    They’re fucking useless.

  3. Because nothing shouts patriotism like putting a flag down on a road for people to drive over.

  5. That’s the flag of Genoa, Italy. The England flag has a darker red and the arms of the cross are wider.

  6. Red cross on a white circle isn’t even a St George flag; it’s a Red Cross symbol.

    It’s only a flag if it’s on a rectangle of certain dimensions/ratio.

    Honestly, these people…

  8. This makes about as much sense as making it ‘official policy’ to have all Reform MPs have the words ‘I luv me cuntry’ tattooed on their forehead.

  9. Picture is accurate. Car not going around the roundabout and with number plate in the windscreen instead of on the front of the car.

  10. it really doesn’t take much to change that into the swastika that they are implying. Should we also hang giant portraits of Farage from the council buildings?

  11. Party of the knuckle draggers appeals to the knuckle draggers more at 6

  13. Perhaps if they learned which way up the Union Jack is supposed to be first.

  15. Hmm spend money to fix potholes or spend money to paint roundabouts to please a few idiots.

    Performative politics at its best and even if they do get into power this is the sort of shit you can still expect from them even while they cut all public services. You have to be a special kind of moron to vote reform tbh.

  17. Akin to painting ambulances with rainbows on at tax payers expense. Absolute waste of public resources.

  18. “…and as the mighty dragon drew its last breath, it curled up into a ball and exhaled. With its final death rattle it turned to white ash, with the blood from its wounds forming a red cross on it. And all the people gathered around, and would always walk around the circle of ash, allowing people on their right to pass first in honour of St George who slew the dragon with his right hand…

    And that, little Nigel, is the story of why St. George is the patron saint of roundabouts”

  19. Councils are already struggling with budgets having cut everything to the bone. But “The economic development and growth boss” things painting a flag on roundabouts will be good use of funds.

  21. Can we do the same with drawings of dicks on walls?

    They’re far funnier

  22. Yeah mate we should have out flag on shit like roundabouts and other places that arent maintained so then they just turn to looking shit AND we should DEFO have the flag on the ground ……::

  23. This sounds like “Our goons joined in the vandalism and dont want to cop charges for vandalism. So we want it to be official policy to slap red crosses on anything white”

  24. Roundabouts are the perfect shape for an Anarchist symbol. Just saying.

  25. “First they fascinate the fools, then they muzzle the intelligent.”

    Following the fascist playbook to the letter on both sides of the Atlantic right now.

  26. Let’s make this national policy lads🇬🇪

  27. It’s disrespectful to put a flag on the ground and have people driver over it.

  29. Wait until they find out where Saint George is from, and was most likely a different ethnicity.

  30. Why? Are there voters unemployed “painters and decorators” looking for work or something?

    What a waste of bleeding money….your council tax has gone up…bins are going to be removed once a year now, but we need to paint flags on roundabouts because “patriotism”

    Absolute clowns.

    Our society is finished.

  33. I know you have to give way to the right when it comes to roundabouts but this is taking it too literally!

  34. Ok, if it’s official policy then let’s do it professionally. You know, good quality paint, well measured etc. ok we’ll need to close the road while we do it obviously, and to do all our roundabouts in a council, well it’ll have to be instead of a library. But, I’m sure it’s worth it to… to…

  37. Ah yes, once again Reform are focusing on the real problems. Not the NHS, not the cost of living crises and certainly not welfare cuts. No no, the real issues are the cost of Freddos, making sure women can’t work and painting roundabouts.

    I try not to judge people, I really do. But if you support Reform you are a fucking moron. They stand for nothing except destroying this country for their individual gain.

    If you really want to be a “patriot” of our country, stand against those who are actively trying to destroy it.

  39. Perfectly sums up the levels of seriousness of this “political” party.

  40. It’s fitting because Reform want nothing more than to keep everyone going round and round the same conversation forever.

  41. That puts their policy count at a grand total of 1 I think.

  42. I guess when you have no real policies to help the working and middle classes you have to get creative.

  43. Yep nothing shouts patriotic by having cars drive over your beloved flag. Absolute idiots 🙄

  44. Yes, let’s piss money away on virtue signalling and gesture politics.

    Shallow wankers.
