Re: No flags allowed on ntl/TW vans

if that's the reason why then I'd fly the flag on an NTL van as that's a disgraceful excuse. would the same rules apply in pakistan? would they not fly their flags in case they upset christians in their country?

Killjoys at cable giant NTL are among the latest party-poopers — ordering van drivers and subcontractors to tear down their flags in case they offend Muslims.

One shocked driver said: “If we’re seen with any flags on our vans we’ll be given a written warning.”

The company insisted: “We work in many multicultural areas and in different countries within Britain so we want to maintain a professional image and a sense of impartiality.”

that is patronising to muslims who WANT to be integrated and offensive to me. it also reinforces the us and them attitudes that the BNP feed on.
