Brown Is An Embarrasment (Pt 102)

Never dispense with a daily check of The Croydonian, and this post particularly appeals to our blog which has a proud military slant.

The Union Flag should never be improperly flown. Not just on a Destroyer, not on a tank, not on the 11th Hour - not at any time. Many men and women have died standing beside those colours.

So if you are the Prime Mentalist Minister you would maybe notice at some passing Chinese-UK trade summit or other that your flag was somewhat squiffy, yes? Apparently not. IT'S ONLY THE FLAG OF THE COUNTRY YOU ARE BUSY DESTROYING. Upside down. Not good.

Not amused. (TheEye remains non-sweary but with twitches)

Upside down is a signal of distress. A call for help?

No help coming from me.

Lady Thatcher

"If you lead a country like Britain, a strong country, a country which has taken a lead in world affairs in good times and in bad, a country that is always reliable, then you have to have a touch of iron about you."

Voltaire

"Stand upright, speak thy thoughts, declare The truth thou hast, that all may share; Be bold, proclaim it everywhere: They only live who dare."
