FLAGS ON NUMBER PLATES FIASCO IS NOT FINE

IT is officially illegal to have British, English, Scottish or Welsh flags on your car number plates — but not the EU flag.

Thousands of motorists have been unwittingly breaking the law after the Government backtracked on a promise to legalise the display of Union Flags on number plates.

Ministers said they would take action to exempt British drivers from EU-inspired legislation which also outlawed the Cross of St George, the Scottish Saltier and the Welsh Dragon.

But the change was never made — and it is only now that the true situation has been revealed.

The fiasco means that for the past seven years motorists with national flags on their plates have unknowingly been risking prosecution, a fine of £1,000 and an MoT failure for their vehicle.

Under the regulations in their original form, the only insignia allowed was the 12-star circle of the European Union. Motorists had to choose either a plain plate without a symbol, or one with the EU emblem and the letters GB on the left-hand side.

Ministers claimed the move was justified, as English, Welsh and Scottish symbols would confuse police forces in other EU countries.

This shows exactly how far the EU Superstate has intruded into the workings and laws of ordinary citizens all over Europe, and of that organisation's desire to stamp out any last vestige of national identity or pride.

I am British and although I don't have a flag on my car number-plate, I do have the George along with the Jack on my rear car window and with me being both English and British, I consider that these flags are my country's flags, the same country that I served as a soldier and that being the case they will remain in their prodigious position on my rear screen until the day I die; the people responsible for such a declaration are in my honest opinion traitors to Britain!
