It's a 'national pride' statement. It's been going on for over a week now.
People have been putting them up in protest to the channel crossing debacle that's going on at the moment.
Imo it's absolutely embarrassing, Xenophobic, and churlish.
Nothing says "national pride" like ordering thousands of flags probably from China
And then putting half of them upside down.
There are so many Union Jack's hanging upside down round here...
Someone should convince 'em to hang the English flags upside down
(they're symmetrical)
Or from what I have heard about... Buying them back off people who have taken them down!
