Hull Pride

[dennisboothstash]

That isn't an official policy. An official policy on flying flags at police stations, or any where else, would cover all of them to say they were allowed or not. Some of them means it is an arbitary decision.

Utter bollocks
Their official policy was to fly them at 8 stations, very clearly and publicly stated with the stations listed

You’re wrong

Official policy is nationwide. Not a few local stations trying to be with it.

No it’s not
There is no national police force.
The official policy is that of Humberside Police. They are a stand alone organisation with all of their own policies.

"We vandalised the flag the other evening, and we note that as a result of our actions, it has had to be taken down. To be clear, we did not remove the flag, as we respect other people’s property and do not wish to be accused of theft.

"Instead, we vandalised it by cutting the rope above the cleat and releasing the halyard – the damage is easily remediable. However, should you re-fly the flag or anything similar, we WILL remove it and we will also take whatever other action we consider appropriate and proportionate. We trust that further action will not necessary.

Maybe raid the HQ of the local flag geek club and round up the usual suspects?

Like allowing Travellers to ignore all the laws that we, the law-abiding local residents, have to obey.

Is there a Travellers flag by any chance?

A pity you don't do that before replying to threads you haven't read. It wouldn't make you appear intelligent. Maybe not totally stupid though.

So just a few arbitary stations then, not all of them, to "celebrate" and show affinity with an event in Hull?

Hoisted by his own petard, as us flag geeks would say.....

No not arbitrary, the ones they chose (presumably their larger administrative hubs)
And it wasn’t to show support for Hull

No. I am the type that would get others to carry out such risky manouevres. Though with our local police you could hire a cherry picker crane to do it and they wouldn't notice.

If ever there was a need to justify Pride the ignorant bigotry displayed by some on here does just that.

I honestly can't believe some of the stuff posted on this thread. I cant believe homophobic attitudes, racism and even offensive remarks towards younger generations that have been posted in this thread.

A family member of mine has married someone of Muslim faith and he is the most open, tolerant man you could wish to welcome into your family. And yes they have a dog as a pet.

Some of the posts on here are playing on so many old stereotypes (one about fascists youngsters that is completely wrong) that have been proven to be wrong time and time again.

Each and every one of us should be able to live our lives however we wish, within a tolerant and accepting society.

I honestly wish people who have such closed minds to go out there and see more of the world, meet people from different cultures, religions and people with different sexual orientations. It might help them realise how wrong they are to put them down and persecute them.

Hmmm...what if it's an inside job?
