Ban councils from removing UK national flags displayed in public

Members can read every reason.
Ban the UK & constituent nation flags’ use for political purposes
Pass a law so no political party is allowed to use the national or constituent flags for any political purposes in any way. We want it to be a criminal offence to use, modify, alter or change the appearance of any national flag from the UK for political purposes.
Require local authorities to remove all flags from street furniture
Require local authorities to promptly remove flags that have been put up illegally in public spaces (under the Highways Act 1980), and encourage anyone wanting to display a flag to do so on their personal and private property.
Develop government guidance encouraging councils to fly Pride & equality flags
We want Government to develop national guidance encouraging councils to fly inclusive flags, such as Pride, Trans, and Women’s Rights flags, during awareness events. We believe these flags show solidarity and support for marginalised groups and should be welcomed in public spaces.
Ban councils from using third party litter enforcement companies
Councils often employ third party companies to hand out fines for the dropping of litter. These companies are driven by profit. We want this practice to end and councils must employ their own enforcement employees.
Require all public buildings in England to fly Cross of St George
We urge the Government to require all public buildings, including governmental and municipal buildings, in England to fly the Cross of St George. We want no other flags or signs to be flown with it, apart from the Union Flag and/or county colours.
