A flag is a flag, the way the NF use the England flag is probably different to the way most of us perceive it - same goes for the Communist flag. It's a symbol like many others, depends how you use it. Fringe nutters everywhere. You obviously have no idea about history and communism. So waving Nazi flags would be OK too?

What have you - or anyone organising the marches you attend - done to root out far left groups? I don't organise the marches. What far left groups need rooting out of the teaching unions?

Hmmm. Do you reckon it's possible for them to succeed even with the thugs involved? Ie, keep them as a minority, teach them through engagement rather than just kicking them out? Not sure how you change minds. An interesting idea. I'd prefer if the FLA organised a march alongside a Muslims against terrorism group to show unity and prove once and for all they are not islamaphobic.

Just look at the debate about the Confederate flag as an example. What do you suggest? Banning flags? I think many people will be highly scandalised by displays of Nazi symbols here because of the conflict, and that usually constrains its display. The communist flag probably has more meaning in Eastern Europe than it does here, for example.

Yeah, neither do I! Socialist Worker is a far-left political party. They like a placard that lot. Bit of a laughing stock who like to condemn people and ostracise them. Quite funny. Pretty much harmless. I know a few people involved with them . Was put off by the rape scandal at the top.

I teach, but not in the classroom. I tutor kids at home who are too unwell to go to mainstream school until a specialist placement is found for them. Very rewarding. And spend most of your day spouting far left diatribe on here. Thanks for that!
