Wow, UKIP being described as PC, they will be pleased. I think, reading the article, it was contravening local regs.

This is definitley not down to the PC brigade more the exploding Torygraph readers.

In the recent council elections the BNP triunced UKIP in almost every seat we fought togeather so how you make out they are the fourth biggest is beyond me,yes they have euro MEPs but we have beaten them almost every time .
As to getting the flag of the E U removed good for them,I want all the euro flags gone .

I thought that you liked Europeans? ;)

Anyway, the SNP is 4th, Plaid Cymru is 5th and the Greens are 6th. The UKIP and BNP are so far down the list as to not make a fig of difference anywhere except on the internet.

Well said Roy, I'm English first, British second and the Gravy Train called Europe can go sort its lumps out. But NOT with my money.

I’ve never actually managed to work out who the PC brigade are, but since they are the ones who allegedly get flags taken down because it offends them, I thought UKIP’s actions might mean they are now accepted into this elusive and mystical group.

After all they have a token black man on their campaign poster and offer accessibility options for web users with a visual impairment.

Maybe it’s time to update the Google bomb to 'PC swivel eyed loons'?

I thought the PC brigade were the same as those people who do lots of good things and hug trees. ;)

If you feel happy with sentences like ,

" The Chair moved that in future spokespersons should write on the greenboard all the information about the dangers of manperson covers on some streets. Chair suggested that not enough persons were committing ."

then you are probably one of the P.C Brigade .

I agree, as the P.C brigade would want 'us' to be to British, as opposed to English - I'll go with the Eurosceptic - Mail readers.

:D

exactly the same as all the other stories of this type;

"They made a formal complaint to Westminster Council after discovering that planning permission has not been granted for it.
"

It could be anything they were flying, but without planning permission it shouldn't be there.
