For years, the British right warned us there was a war on Christmas. In 2025, the situation for patriots became even more dire when the enemy within declared a war on flags. Tragically, this has now created a situation in which Kent County Council have had to make the hardest choice imaginable – Christmas lights or flags.

We’ll let Harrietsham Parish Council explain which side the Reform-led council chose:

Oh gosh, Reform UK Kent Council has a dilemma. Cancel the Christmas lights or take down the flags. pic.twitter.com/sbkaBwVUyc

As you can see, the anti-flag communists of the People’s Republic of Kent sided with the flags.

May Santa have mercy on their souls.

Looks like Tommy the Sniff and his band of miscreants have succeeded where mythical Muslim complainers have failed. Christmas is cancelled in Kent. Because flags. https://t.co/Y9MMNpFE36

“This is why we are falling so behind as a country in the global market”

Admittedly, the message from Harrietsham wasn’t crystal clear. Seeking clarity, we headed over to Facebook, but the commenters there were equally confused:

To get to the bottom of it, we contacted Harrietsham Parish, and they provided us with a clearer statement:

Having arranged the annual permit for the installation of the Christmas lights on the A20 through the village, the Parish Council was informed by Kent County Council’s Street Lighting Department that, for safety reasons, attachments cannot be placed on streetlights which have a flag hung on them; they need to be removed before placing the attachment. When the flags were first erected, the matter was discussed with our contractor and they advised that they could install the Christmas lights around the flags without issue. However, with the caveat placed on the installation of the Christmas lights by KCC, this is no longer an option available to the Parish Council.

It is not within the contractor’s remit to remove flags as part of the installation process. As the flags and street columns are not Council property, the Parish Council is not permitted to use public funds to pay for their removal.

We are hoping that whoever installed the flags will be able to remove them in due course to allow for the festive lights to be installed as planned. The Parish Council felt it was important to make residents aware of the potential implications as early as possible, given the short timescales involved for the Christmas lighting installation.

They added:

The Parish Council will not be making any further comment on the matter.

So there we have it.

The pinkos at Kent County Council have taken a Flags First position, even though the patriotic contractors of Harrietsham Parish said it’s perfectly possible for St. George and St. Nick to exist in harmony.

This country, eh?

The real question now is why don’t these lamp posts have a fucking poppy on them?
