Fly the EU Flag... No thanks...

Seems some councillors have started to see sense, not all of them of course, but one in particular springs to mind.

Step forward Mr Tony Austin a Tory councillor from Canterbury. Who upon the Executive Committee receiving "guidelines" from the Dept of Culture, Media and Sport, which suggested Canterbury fly the EU flag 19 times per year, made the comment that "As many council services were contracted out, it would cost about £30.00 per time to fly the EU flag in various locations throughout the city". He also stated "To be honest I'm not that happy about flying it at all. I am sceptical about the advantages of being in Europe."

The council voted just to fly the EU flag on Europe day 9th May!

Well well even the councillors are learning that people just don't want the EU.

Well done the Exec Committee of Canterbury City Council, at the next vote try and get a not fly at all motion!
