      It's the same flag they brandished when conquering and plundering half of the globe. Maybe that's the beef (butcher's apron pun intended) some people have with it.

      That's like saying " what's the fuss with people walking around with a swastika flag? it's only a piece of material after all"

      With any luck it'll get vandalised.

        I really can't see the point to it. A flag on an Embassy abroad, Yes, a flag on an office of the country that it's in-Why? And to add balance, i'd feel the same if it was a welsh flag.

          Unless it'[s the opposition net, the he gets upset if the bag of air isn't kicked into it. :getscoat:

            The difference between a swastika flag and the union flag is that they lost!

              Yup, that's the obvious trade off.....

                Yes let’s reduce everyone’s hobbies down to their simple form and point out how ridiculous they are!

                Unless OP has some attachment to the HMRC building I don’t get why it bothers him in the slightest

                  I think it might be because Brexit highlighted how little people knew about what the EU was doing within the UK.

                  We've gone past the "magic money tree" line in terms of government spending and now just a case of what the UK government thinks is a priority.

                  In Wales, for the UK government, the priority is a massive UK flag. It's not the necessary investment into rail networks throughout Wales.

                    A lot of wannabee English types on here

                    Great Britain and all that

                    I say shove it

                    If it were the only HMRC building in the UK it might be argued that it could be a union jack

                    But putting that thing up in the middle of central square as people come off the train ?

                    Cobblers , may as well put a statue of thatcher up

                      Perhaps we should tell them to shove all their UK based buildings and organisations that provide so many jobs below are a few:
                      ONS.
                      Patent Office.
                      DVLA.
                      Companies House .
                      And a few more goverment subsideries organisations.


                      Are they all potentially Thatcherism organisations, if so let's pull them down now before the flags rock up.

                      We don't need this Britishness in Wales .

                        Its the price we're all paying for wanting our blue passports back.

                          Are you really comparing the Union Jack to the flag of Nazi Germany?

                            I thought he was just explaining to you why 'some people are triggered by flags'. Seems to have worked!

                                I'd love to know how you imagine the UK ruling an empire which at one point covered 22% of the world's land mass came about, cups of tea and polite requests? :sherlock:
