London’s Flag Flap

The London Fog is right (*cough*) when it says that “Mayor Anne Marie DeCicco-Best was exactly right to oppose the City choosing which communities to support by flying flags…” 01

clipart from clipartheaven.comIf it’s ok to fly the rainbow flag at City Hall during the Pride London Festival, how can local politicians subsequently deny any other group the same opportunity without opening up a terrible ‘can of worms’?

And what makes the top of City Hall so special or so different? Why is it ok for this flag to fly on the City Hall building, but it’s not ok for any mention of our local community association on the city’s website? 02
