1. Was there a u-turn? His original display was an advertisement, in contravention with local planning laws, and his second display is not?

2. From reading the story it just seems to me that the original flag was an advertisement – it has a qr code etc, and the new flag is just a really big flag? Which has never been illegal to put on your own buildings. Nothingburger story honestly

3. Absolute child. 

4. Virtue signalling nonsense. This is what Americans do. Worship their flag.

5. Flag shagger

6. Sounds like a bit of a bellend tbh.

7. Imagine making your whole personality a flag

8. “I’m making a point that ^as ^long ^you ^ignore ^the ^details you can’t even fly a flag, these days”

9. That huge flag on the picture looks so cool!

10. Most of these people have had the ability to put flags up for the better part of 30 years..none did..now they are bandwagon jumping it’s a sorry sight to see 😂

11. Chesterfield, not Manchester

12. You cant download a flag

13. Imagine if he invested as much time and money into showing true patriotism by turning that ugly abandoned building into something that was an asset to its community as he does to performative flag shagging.

    What a sad little man.

14. Undoubtedly a bellend, flags don’t bother me one bit, it’s the people putting them up that always seem like completely bell’

15. My town centre is covered in flags council has made no moves to remove them for months.

16. The headlines on this one are being intentionally inflammatory. Dude was displaying an advertisement and was asked to take it down. He wasn’t asked to take it down because it was a flag, but because it was an advert.

17. Hahaha what a knob

18. You know what they say about men who like to put up big flags, they in reality have a small one.

19. bellend.
