    They aren’t patriots. It’s not like they put up the flags of Derby or Derbyshire, and they don’t put up the Union Flag nearly as often as the cross of St. George.

    And why don’t they put up the flag of the Commonwealth? Do they not sing God Save the King?

      only 15 of 56 commonwealth members have king charles as head of state, so it would be kinda werid and against the spirit of things to wave it out of royalist sympathy. You could fly the Royal Standard, but I’m pretty sure that’s technically a hangin’ if you aren’t actually in the presence of the king.

      Given how many of them also believe that the royal family is part of multicultural conspiracy to replace the English with bug-eating foreigners, various interregunum flags would mage sense too.
