SO the Union Flag is to be allowed to fly alongside the flag of Pakistan on Accrington Town Hall to celebrate the inauguration of Hyndburn's first Asian mayor.

No doubt our own national flag will have been dragged out of the mothballs and flown in order to appease the possible anger of many of the silent indigenous majority.

In these days of endless pro multi-racial brainwashing, the Union Flag is as rare a sight as an eclipse of the sun. And is this Hyndburn Council not the same one which banned any display of the Union Flag at the time of the Gulf War?
