Wtf.
It's sickening how the far right agenda has been so normalised that the government is pandering to them.

Iโd rather heโd come out as a nonce than whatever the fuck this is.
Maybe the royals are actually reptilians and they replace anyone dumb enough to be PM
Imagine how the far right and/or football hooligans must feel seeing their preferred symbol of nationalism be linked to somebody as milquetoast as Starmer ๐คฃ
Honestly, though, good for Starmer. None of us need to fly a flag - I think we know what country weโre in??? - but I abhor how the far right try to claim it for themselves, and how then anybody who does fly the flag is immediately linked to those bastards.
โIโve lost Saint George in the Union Jack, thatโs my flag too and I want it back!โ - Roots, by Show of Hands.
It's not the far-right's preferred symbol of nationalism. It's our national flag. That's how I look at it, and we should act as such. Labour displaying the Union Flag was ALWAYS the right choice. It's better than his disgraceful predecessor refusing to sing the national anthem.
I know you can say "oooh, his policies though, read his policie-"
The average voter doesn't read the entire manifesto. They just remembered that he was some bloke who wouldn't even sing the national anthem and got cushy with the IRA.
So the choices in the last election were ethno-nationalism or protest vote, got it
Keir Starmer: seat warmer for Nigel.
"Always sits in front of a Union Jack" is pretty weird to be honest. I mean, does he have one draped over the back of every chair the house and over the bed's headboard? Has he had one painted on the underside of the lid of his toilet?
Little known fact about ol' Keir, but this is what he wears around the house:
Haha, that's definitely possible.
An alternative is that as he's always in front of the Union Jack... perhaps he simply has a "special personal assistant" dressed like this, who is always behind him in his home?
Keir: "Bring out the special personal assistant"
Servant: "But the special personal assistant's sleeping"
Keir: "Well, I guess you're gonna have to go wake him up now, won't you?"
My thinking was that he sits facing it, like you would sit in front of the TV. But instead of the tele, he is just staring at red, white and blue like a true patriot.
That's a good point! For some reason, I didn't consider that he could be facing it.
The wonderful ambiguity of the English language. Never has caused any issues before I am sure.
Obviously he stands to take a shit, no sitting involved there.
foocking liebour politisan, its called the UNION FLAG when its on land!
Wikipedia: "It is sometimes asserted that the term Union Jack properly refers only to naval usage, but this assertion was dismissed by the Flag Institute in 2013 after historical investigations."
To continue to explain much too seriously for a shitposting community: a jack in general is a specific type of flag on a ship, specifically the smaller one that flies at the front. It's traditionally only flown in harbour or at anchor
The British one specifically, though, has history messing things up. It actually pre-dates the Acts of Union (or at least the earlier version of it without the St Patrick's cross does) by an entire century. Originally it really was a jack, only for maritime usage, and Scotland and England continued to fly their own flags on land. By the time the Acts of Union made it an actual national flag, everyone had been calling that design a jack for their entire lives anyway, so it just stuck. Both the admiralty and parliament confirmed that either term is acceptable for official use in the early 1900s
I saw you helping your uncle jack off a horse, so I did.
Jokes on you he had his home commissioned as a naval vessel
Hey nige, come here and let me suck that mushroom cock
Hmm. Maybe he's trying to normalise and 'reclaim' the flag for non-racists. That would be a good thing.
What is "Union" about that Jack?
And the Oscar goes to....๐ and morons are clapping ๐
I mean, if it will stop people voting reform, I don't see the harm
Come on, no one buys this shit. The people who this is supposed appeal to can see this for the obvious grift it is, no one believes Starmer is being sincere here.
