‘If [St George flag] offends anyone, the answer is to move to another country’
Michael Coren:
As for the so-called far right — about 10 people and a dog — this would be like removing the Canadian flag because a white supremacist in his mom’s basement puts it on his website.
The rainbow flag of the gay community is still to be flown by this particular council, of course, and Islamic festivals are to be properly commemorated, but the flag known by men who died fighting the Nazis and one that represents nation, tolerance, democracy and decency is to disappear.
To their credit, several Muslim leaders have described the action as absurd and extreme, which is a welcome departure as similar flags have been taken down from police stations and public buildings due to Islamic complaints.
