Keep Our great countrys flags flying

Keep the union flags and st George flags flying. As long as they are maintained and don't pose a danger then our flags should be flown, if they have been up for a long time with no trouble then why upset the majority that love them. you have bigger issues to worry about like potholes and roads. If you do decide to remove them then let the groups who put them up know, so if there will be costs then by them removing them they will not be fined. 

Our flags should be flown wherever possible, as said, as long as they are maintained they should stay. Thankyou
