I suppose it's true that the left-wing equivalent is the Palestinian flag, or the centrist equivalent is the Ukrainian flag, however this usually comes in the form of a sticker or the odd flag flown from a house window here and there, rather than a row of flags hung from every lamp post on a street.

Quantity has quality all of its own. Although many different causes use flags for promotion, the obsession that certain elements of the English right have with the English flag is at a completely different level.

Not in the UK, but I was surprised by the abundance of Palestinian flags in the Basque country, Spain, last year.

There were definitely places where you had 7-8 of them in your view while walking random streets.

Not surprising to me as much, given their separatist sentiments under the yoke of the fascist Franco not too long ago at all.

You may want to check the obsession that people on the left have with the Palestinian flag. Any situation is good to show it off even when it has nothing to do with Palestine.
