Fury as Labour councillor accused of tearing down England flag | Politics | News

A worker mayor faces calls to resign after allegedly destroyed a flag carrying Union Jack from a lamp.

Mayor of the Ripley Municipal Assembly Colin Bailey, a Derbyshire District Council street lamp by removing the red and white flag allegedly caught CCTV. It is unclear whether it is a British flag or the day of remembering.

Graves, who received the reform of Derbyshire District Assembly Assembly Member, said: “The Labor Party continues to show its true colors. Ripley’s very disappointment took over the pride and patriotism of the workers’ Mayor.

“Our flags are not only a sign of unity and inclusion, but also national pride.

Due to the anti -immigrant protest wave, national flags emerged in overpasses and lamps throughout the country.

Operation colors encouraged people to hang patriotic flags in public places throughout the country.

Ripley Municipal Assembly said in a statement, “The Ripley Municipal Assembly was informed of a social media mission showing an incident containing a municipal council member.

“We understand that the behavior shown upsets some members of the community.”

The Council then confirmed that the statement of the statement was about CLLR Bailey.

He continued to say that official complaints would be investigated against the members of the Assembly.

Prime Minister Sir Keir Starmer adopted the flag as the leader of the worker during his five -year term of office, and at one point he was mocked because he appeared on TV regularly with a union flag in the background.

This summer, he showed his support to those who exhibited St George’s cross as patriotic pride.

But he also tried to make a distinction between them and the extreme right protesters, and argued that the latter had armed the symbol of division of society.
