OK, usually these posts offer an attempt to come up with intelligent analysis of some major political development or other, but I feel the need to post something a little more superficial, so here goes...

What is up with those stupid St George's flag things on people's cars. Its not really the whole patriotism thing I don't like (although I'm pretty dubious about that, the St George's flag is in my opinion less reactionary than the Union Jack), it's just that they look stupid and tacky. As for the idiots with full sized flags attached to their aerials, don't even get me started!
