A major UK housing management company has banned all residents from hanging flags from their balconies on the same day the World Cup is due to get underway.
Rendall & Rittner Housing sent a letter this morning reminding all residents of the "proper use and maintenance of balconies as per the terms of your Lease."
The mandatory guidance coincides with the start of the World Cup, essentially banning English and Scottish fans from publicly showing their support during the tournament.
Those who break the rule "may be reported for further action", the company said.
Rendall & Rittner Housing were founded in 1990 and manages over 90,000 homes across the UK.
They operate primarily in London, Manchester, and Bournemouth, but as a national property managing agent, they also have properties around Britain, including Scotland.
The management company are hired by freeholders, developers, and resident groups to handle day-to-day building operations, block management, and estate maintenance.

Why do they continue to tolerate this?
Okay, then just stand on the balcony waving the flag back and forth. Sheesh!
Indeed!
It’s really about suppressing any show of patriotism. The left feels it has to do that so as to suppress any national pride that the folks may have.
Because the best of them died in 2 world wars.
Ignore
I’d hang a Rainbow flag out just to see what happens.
Jamaican flags are OK, I’ll bet.
> Why do they continue to tolerate this?
Do you expect anything less from SUBJECTS (vs. Citizen)??
That would be interesting. Someone should do that. Hang the flag of one of the invader countries, preferably a Muslim country and see if the management company has the balls to make them take it down. It would show a lot.
“proper use and maintenance of balconies as per the terms of your Lease.”
I suspect anyone caught breaking the lease by displaying a British flag will be evicted and the home given to a migrant.
Isis, gay and LGBTQ flags exempted, of course.
There should be a big flag on every single balcony.
Do it anyway.
Eff them.

If every homeowner hangs out a Union Jack what is the company going to do?
Time for them all to channel their inner Spartacus.
She could be my granddaughter anytime she wants.
Blah,blah,blah.
Nonsense.
Then wave the NAZI flag, in support of the British government.
