Is Flag Flying Patriotic — or a Message to Others?
The diverse roundtable take on the meaning of flag flying today — pride, patriotism, and the mixed signals it can send the wider community. Is it a celebration of identity, or does it risk making others feel unwelcome? 

From flags across Turkey to St Patrick’s Day vs St George’s Day, and the surge of national pride around football and the Olympics, the roundtable explores the intention behind flying flags across Sussex & Surrey along with what sparked the recent rise. What does it really say about us? Wide ranging perspectives and thought provoking! 

Roundtable featuring: James Tidy, Iqbal Khan, Micaela Leal and Aga Es, hosted by Clive Hilton.
