Not OP, but British, seems you only really see them on house for football as previously stated and on the houses of people that tend to be ignorant and/or racist so they fly the ~~Union Jack~~ St George Cross Flag as a means to be patriotic to this shit hole.

Edit: Put the wrong flag, as evidently I’m a moron today.

Worse if it’s the St George Cross imo. I’ve never understood the “away with immigrants” argument from a nation of immigrants. Do they think life evolved in the UK?

That’s the flag I meant. I’m just a moron today apparently.

They’ve just been conditioned to target their frustrations at the wrong people by the media they consume.
