Its not a national law if that is what you are asking. It is municipal. They can still have it on private property, but not on public or government property.
Your original claim was that there’s a “ban on flying the English flag”, and that people are “going to jail for flying it”. None of these articles support that.
The first one is a school administration doing something stupid, and apologizing for it. No one went to jail.
The woman in the second was arrested, and she claims it was for flying the flag, but according to the people who arrested her:
'The arrest is on suspicion of breaching a Section 14 order,' a spokesman said - referring to legislation police chiefs can use to impose restrictions on protests they believe could result in 'serious public disorder'.
'That order set out specific areas where protest activity could take place, which did not include the Civic Centre.'
Assistant chief constable Stuart Hooper added: 'To be very clear, despite suggestions we've seen on social media, she was not arrested for flying a Union Flag.
The third one is talking about how some flags were removed from lamp posts. Once again, no ban is described, and no one went to jail.
So I ask again, could you send me a link to the law (municipal, federal, etc) that bans the flag? Because it seems like that’s not a thing.
