[News] There goes the neighbourhood......

[Saladpack Seagull]

The Union Flag usually flown outside Goring Conservative Club has been replaced by a Palace flag. Is this sickening spectacle a wind-up aimed at decent Sussex folk? I thought for a minute I'd gone to bed in Sussex-by-the-Sea and woken up in the smouldering ruins of Croydon. Unless this situation is rectified in short order, mine's another vote they won't be getting next time around..........

Tells you all you need to know about the Conservatives. If Boris hasn't lost the votes then this surely will.

Needs to be on the meltdown thread.

I live within a stone's throw of that place, but now I need to change that to 'spitting distance'.

Contact them, tell them you are a true blue Tory who loves the Union flag and demands its return immediately.

 

[lawros left foot]

I saw that the other day.

An entirely unconnected question, does anyone know the best accelerant for burning flagpoles?

 

[Springal]

Unsurprising given the area around there is similar to Croydon

Oh dude, it is still within a stone's throw, just make sure it is big and does not miss.

Just tell them you’re a stupid/selfish* ****; much quicker.

* delete applicable term based on wealth.

Harsh......!

I have never been described as stupid or selfish, but it seems there's a first time for everything........

Outside the Conservative club, you say?

A failing organisation which is haemorrhaging support and sees ever more grandiose infrastructure projects fail to come to fruition, Crystal Palace now have a flag flying there.

Fair point...........

 

[Jim D]

There are lots of caravan-dwellers on goring seafront. Maybe they're flying the flag as a mark of solidarity.

 

[Eeyore]

Relax.

It has been done for public decency.

The Union flag was being publicly shagged by members after a few pints. So they replaced it with a Palace one. Even the most patriotically amorous wouldn't touch that.

 

[Motogull]

Ignoring the rivalry, that's an embarrassment for the party if done by a member there. The prat probably thought he was being a bit of a legend but that's not the way.
