BobyBrno Posted March 22 Share Posted March 22 Changing the flag has caused controversy in other areas. I suppose it depends on the reasons for it. The thin blue line flag for instance. 🤷♂️ Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Interesting this - not because of the flag thing per say as its not really of huge importance but they way the media are treating him and what he says on such things - its like the media have pretty much accepted he's going to be the next PM as what he says on 48-week long popular news cycle events actually matters.

Done for cost reasons I guess. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Collar number and obvious police marking and that's it. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
BobyBrno Posted March 22 Share Posted March 22 Going back to the shirt, I’ve seen many sports shirts over the years and quirky styles representing the cross of St George. I remember the England RL shirt with John Smiths in the middle of it. That caused a bit of a stir also. That was a Puma shirt. The authorities should have realised that it would be unpopular.

The Fire Service and Ambulance Service wear the same stylised Union Flag but with red or green band. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
