Remember last summer during Euro 2004 when everyone had those crap plastic St George’s flags on their cars? (And remember how quickly they all disappeared after Beckham fluffed his penalty against Portugal?) That week it was the main talking point on Radio 4′s Any Questions, with the panel split 50/50 between thinking it was (a) a terrifying wave of fascism engulfing the whole country or (b) just some flags. It’s amazing how quickly you forget such large-scale barminess.
