This is incorrect.
The Union Flag is ALWAYS flown highest ,in the middle,in front or on the right in the case of a procession.


You dont go north too often do you :roll:

I'll condemn whatever I want....it's apparently a fundemental right of a citizen whose nation has errm destroyed a good number of countries in its quest to raise its own flag.

Okay shout it over here if you must - but be careful when you are abroad................English does not always go down too well! Welsh are "well you are not English are you" and sometimes because of history "English that is" it keeps us out of the Sh!t.

Trust me on that one do not be blase to the point of getting a kicking.

It seems to me the only people who like the union jack are either grannies shouting for tim henman or english people who believe the british empire was a really good thing that enlightened the world.


well, that must be a pretty big group of folk judging by the popularity of the Union flag then...

FFS the red cross is fine so there's no need to change it for some stupid rainbow flag from Lah Lah Land. Apart from which they would signify the same thing and that is the flag of England. The government need to grow a set :roll:
