A police station has come under fire after officers replaced its Union Jack with a gay rights flag.
New Met police chief Sir Paul Stephenson was said to be outraged when he was told the gay emblem was raised outside Limehouse Station in east London.
It replaced the Union Jack and was put up by officers in recognition of Lesbian Gay Bisexual Transgender Month celebrated in February.
But Sir Paul ordered it be hauled down immediately after Met rules state only the Union Jack and the force's own flag can fly from police buildings.
One officer said: 'I couldn't believe my eyes when I saw it. The police are playing politics again.

Actually, it appears to be a race between the Free Countries
as to which can grovel and die the fastest.
England is nose to nose at the lead in the final lap.

Winston Churchill, a giant of history, was the son of an American. Is now the time to bring him home? The only statement of error I am aware of was his singing, during the London Blitz, “There will Always be an England”. Sorry Winston..come on home.

Lavender scented hankies, bullwhips and leather chaps vs. bloody scimitars, the Koran and AK47s. Hmmm. Tough to call. Should be a good match, though.

It’s not a flag. It’s a sign which states “Fruit Deliveries In The Rear.”

So true...though, now that we have the first black president, this administration is now “free” to pursue “gay rights.”
