I think sending a flagpole would be more appropriate.

The brickwork pattern is called 'common bond'...

Stroppy, we are banned from flying the flag until we get permission to, so we are not allowed to fly the flag, which is BANNED from being flown until we do therefore it is banned. Curb the anti Cornish insults please, you don't see me posting anti Stroppy insulting postings.

"troll"Oh dear. I think the equivilent of Godwin's law on this board is the "anti-Cornish" jib. Shall we call it Quantick's law?



And don't forget it people!!

THE CORNISH FLAG IS NOT BANNNED ANDY!

Can you not get that through your head?

I have not posted an insult against the Cornish, I have however taken the p!ss out of those who have created Everest out of a goosebump.

Do you not have the balls to put the strength of your convictions, your love of the flag, and your integrity as a poster here, to the test that I have suggested?

Thought not!




Ps. I'll be back in Cornwall next Easter, fancy getting together for a beer, to show that there's no hard feelings?

A beer! now you've insulted me, better make that ..a few. Yeah thanks Stroppy, of course there is no hard feelings, it's a good healthy debate of which of course i'm right.

Time to come clean. The Cornish Times did report the story with the impression the flag was banned, which i genuinely thought, but after reading a few other sources it became clear that you were right, it was all about planning permission for the pole. But at this point the debate was under way and i couldn't resist but to carry on even though i was wrong, too much of my grandad in me! He'd argue a black man white as my gran would have said.

I hesitate to say it but my understanding is that the 1990 Act and subsequent regulations about this issue classify flags as advertisements and that is why their flying requires planning permission (exception: national flags). Flag poles require planning permission too. So this law has been in force for more than ten years.

Councils do not usually try to enforce this flag-flying law against householders unless someone complains and then they legally are required to investigate.

Last year a man in Yorkshire had council interest in his flying his county's white rose flag, so it is not "English" oppression or bureaucracy or anything. It might be British or UK something. And I think a man in Devon had difficulty over flying that county's flag. As far as I know both still fly their flags.

I do not know of any case where anyone has been prevented in actuality from flying a noncommercial flag, do you?
