    Nobody said flags are inherently racist, or that having them at football is racist.

    Putting them up on public property as part of a campaign founded by an EDL/Britain First ****** to foment nationalism and anti-immigrant sentiment is obviously very different.

    When have people said that waving flags at an England match is racist?

    It's all about what's appropriate.

    It's a bit like taking a sh*t. It's perfectly acceptable to do one in your toilet. But as soon as you do one one your neighbours front doorstep, it has very different connotations.

    Flying an England flag on your own property or at a sporting event, is a perfectly acceptable, patriotic thing to do. Seeking out the only non-white family in the village and hanging one pointedly outside their house, however...

    100% this, I for one see the flags out all down certain Lincoln streets and think how great something like this would look for an appropriate event.

    Well I for one am shocked to learn it’s not about grassroots and all about racism, who would have thought

    There appears to be coordinated campaigns to incite nationalism across a number of countries that trace back - as often these days - to the American right.

    They’re turning to fake Christianity now. I’m not sure that’s going to be as successful in the UK.

    They will be able to strap Lickle Tommy Two Names to those. If only they understood what it means to be a Christian, but that would involve them being able to read. Half of them probably can’t spell church never mind going into one

    I's about grassroots racism!

    And also organised racism funded by people with lots of money.

    London this weekend will be interesting...
    Yaxley Lennon's mob doing a march, with an opposing anti racism one with West Ham v Spurs, Charlton v Millwall & Fulham v Leeds also on. Met getting some overtime.
