Irish flag raised over Stormont

Crooked Jack

Some cheeky boyo has gone and run the tricolour (and what appears to be the 1916 Irish Republic flag) up the flag pole at Stormont.
Can't imagine this will do Peter's heart any good if he sees a picture of it without the context.

Unionists are calling for whoever is responsible to found and hung, draw and quartered.

What do you say AH, a cause for serious offence or someone having a bit of craic?

I hope someone is recording Frazer finding out about this. It'd be the best 'reactions' type video.

One of the flags should have been the rainbow LGBT flag.

Considering we learnt on the other thread that loyalists all brick "southern reg" cars, am I right to assume that Stormont has already been bricked and burnt to the ground?

Im sure theres a bit of tri colour burning taking place right about now.

Never happened to my southern reg car parked many many times in Loyalist estates in Rathcoole and north Belfast.

As far as the flag goes, it's a nice prank.

The roof is under construction. Clearly a few brickies with divilment and not work on their minds. Poor ****ers. Probably get the sack now.

I think getting the sack is the least of their worries, with the police involved they could well end up getting prosecuted. Flags are a contentious issue with rules on when the union flag can be flown from public buildings. There will be arguments made that they were inciting sectarianism

Ah I was only messing. There were a few people who wouldn't move north on a thread last week because they brick cars etc.

Well clearly the construction workers were having a team bonding day paint balling and had to capture the castle. PUP pissed as they werent invited.

Although it could put Peter Robinson back in hospital.

It's actually just an Ivory Coast flag that they've hung up backwards.

Nope, it's green next to the flagpole - Irish flag
Orange next to the flagpole - Ivory coast

Not even Leinster House, put one on your own house to you see the usual suspects spitting feathers and clogging radio shows. Would give the IW workers a bit of respite if nothing else.:P

Has anyone ever been arrested for flag burning incitement on bonfire night?

Funny in fairness

I'm sure they'll find it funny up there....Nothing like a flag to get people in a fluster.

You won't hear a peep out of the orangies when the tricolour is burned on a pile of pallets on the 11th of July though.

Someone puts the flag up for a prank and they call for the cops to look into it.
