England afraid to fly its own flag
Following threats by extremist Islamic group, several corporations, chain of pubs ban England flag Modi Kreitman
Following warnings by extremist Islamic group al-Muhajiroun, in which the group said that the red cross in the England flag symbolizes the 'blood thirsty crusaders' and the occupation of Muslims, some of the largest companies in England have ordered their workers not to wave the flags.
The flag has recently appeared in England on everything from bikinis to cars, and sold in endless versions in stores.
But the Islamic protest forced some corporations, such as cable companies NTL, and even the Drivers and Vehicles Licensing Agency to ban the flag in every form due to fears from reactions of Muslims.

When a country is afraid to fly its own flag because of islamofascism, there is a serious problem. The Islamo-whackos are taking over, guys, and we are just sitting here watching the wheels go round and round.

Everything their apologists and appeasers say is quickly debunked by the actions of the blood lusting cult they try to defend. I have never seen so many do so much that seems to go completely ignored. Mooslimes can burn down their whole country and there will be some saying it was only a few and doesnt represent the whole cult. Amazing..

there's only one Churchill... they should DNA clone him and unleash him on Parliament =)

'the Drivers and Vehicles Licensing Agency to ban the flag in every form due to fears from reactions of Muslims. '
That's a government agency. So a UK government agency forbids the display of the national colors due to fear of the turban turners. No wonder the goat fu*kers think they can conquer even if they do function as though they were living in the 7th century.

The recent book "Londonistan" demonstrates conclusively that the Brits have not only lost their guts, they have lost their mind.

Un you know what believable. If it's not already the end of England and the UK, it's a good start.
I can't believe they would put up with this bull manure.
When will the world start to stand up to the Islamofascists? Every cave in to them emboldens them only more.
If Europe doesn't stand up soon, it's finished in our lifetime.
Un-believable.

We did the same thing with the Danish cartoons. It's called self-censorship, aka intimidation.
