    Proctor is an idiot, but more to the point why would anyone bring an EU flag to the last night of the Proms???

    The Conservatives certainly do.....which is wrong but I believe that Labour would too .In fact,this is a growing trend with all governments of all persuasions around the world .Hateful .
    I genuinely think that with the advent of Social media/instant response/flashmobs/instant rumour or conspiracy spreading the 'people' can be mobilised very quickly and effectively and potentially dangerously for governments .
    It happened at the Whitehouse .
    Governments are scared of people power.
    That's why they are all shortening the reins and passing sneaky legislation to suppress freedoms.

    Its another boring protest group handing out free EU flags.  Now they have the publicity they wanted.

    It's pretty much the only form of protest they haven't already banned, so...
