Came home from a weekend away to find that my village has been taken over by the St George's flag warriors. Every village gateway sign, every lamp-post down my road, even the zebra crossing and the mini roundabout now bear a symbol of xenophobia and division. Just fantastic.

Luckily it's not happened around here just yet. But we do have our own version.

The local parish put flags up around the village to mark different occasions. Pride, Yorkshire day, national flags of other nations during international tournaments and so on. One local chap, has taken umbridge and decided, as a favour to local village. He bought enough St George's to hang on the village flag poles and donate to village.

I am actually sick of this over the top patriotism.
