Union Jack / England Flags illegally attached to lampposts

Reported via desktop in the Column needs to be moved category anonymously at 09:28, Thursday 22 January 2026

Sent to Bristol City Council 1 minute later. FixMyStreet ref: 8740999.

Now that the Bristol City Council has finally seen sense and are making plans to remove the illegally attached flags on lampposts, I thought I would pinpoint exactly where they are around the South Bristol Area. This is not community expression as previously stated by the Council. This is racism masked as patriotism, fueled by the racist group Operation Raise the Colours, and is also against the law (Highways Act 132). If the Council doesn't support racism, anti-immigration ideology, white nationalism or criminal activity, then they will move to remove these flags immediately, and prosecute/fine those that choose to put them back up.
