Welcome to the Fair Flags campaign
Filed Under About Fair Flags | 33 Comments
Hopefully the picture above sums up what the Fair Flags campaign is about.
English butter. British flag. Bet your life if that was Scottish butter it would be proudly displaying the Saltire. We think that’s unfair.
Our aim is to get the supermarkets to consistently display the correct nation of origin on their packaging. At the moment they’re actively going out of their way to show Scottish made produce as made in Scotland whilst displaying English, Welsh and Northern Irish produce as British.
It’s not a big deal like the injustice of the Barnett Formula or the absence of English political representation but where equality is concerned – every little helps.
Thanks to the great work of Chris at Why England needs a Parliament, the CEP and many others, the Supermarkets are becoming aware of this issue, more to the point they are becoming aware that WE are becoming aware.
Let’s keep the pressure on. If you support our aims the best thing you can do is get writing.
If you have a blog please link to our campaign or display our badge (more coming soon).
