Unlawful offensive flags

Reported via mobile anonymously at 13:13, Thursday 9 October 2025

Sent to Oxford City Council and Oxfordshire County Council less than a minute later. FixMyStreet ref: 8274194.

As I was leaving Oxford on the bus, I saw someone unlawfully has put flags on the green road roundabout, including England flags and British Flags. I am an ethnic minority and of refugee descent. This country does not feel like the one that welcomed my grandparents fleeing persecution. I felt very upset and fearful that racist people likely put up these flags as part of a national movement spreading hatred. Please take them down.

  • The flags Have been there for some time, have been added to, and the ones down Bayswater Road have been replaced. When is this going to be sorted out?
