NOW — A veteran of the RAF and long-standing member of the @unionjackclub has tipped us off at Restore Britain that the Union Jack flag was removed from the club’s flagpole ahead of the Unite the Kingdom rally on 13th September. According to the member, the CEO allegedly ordered the removal, calling the national flag “too political.” We have video evidence of the flagpole left bare on the day and have contacted the Club for comment. As of now, no reply has been received.

And the last song they played ironically was The Gift. And a million teenage hearts were broken 💔 all over the country. It took us all a while to come to terms with it but what a fucking 5 years we had!! #TheJam

Point of order. I've said this before, but a WWII veteran passing away at 99 is neither devastating or tragic - it is sad. Kids dying of leukemia, nurses dying of Covid, firefighters on duty, cops being shot, thousands starving in famines - THAT is devastating and tragic

⁦@LMBD1418⁩ This is Henry Cudlip’s grave at Esquelbecq. I haven’t seen a purely Regimental epitaph before. Simply “Buffs. Well done”
