Knocking out a wall or building an extension is structural, a flagpole is cosmetic.

This just sounds like some jobsworth with a little bit of power deciding to exercise their ego to show how important they are.

"Awkward for the sake of being awkward"? Yep, I can agree with that.
Whether you agree with them or not, rules are rules and procedures are to be followed. The establishment in question has not done this so the council has rightly told them to remove the flagpole. The 'jobsworth' in this would be the people who see it as some kind of attack on gays and lesbians.
