Sent to Bromley Council less than a minute later. FixMyStreet ref: 9415624.
Whilst they did look ok when they first went up some are stuck in trees and some are simply not flying - whilst its nice to see the union and george flag flying in some spots not sure we need them on every single lamppost in the lane and surrounding areas. Wonder if there is a happy medium to be met - one on each road even is better than lots of broken, wind beaten ones
Nice around the raf etc giving context and so on.

They have kinda served their purpose now really and just making the streets look a bit tatty (bit OTT).

The Council is removing paint from the highway, including on mini roundabouts and the like on a priority basis, with potential offensive wording being removed as a priority. The Council is compiling a list of flag locations, with flags where there are safety concerns being prioritised for removal.
