An Unfortunate Faux Pas

[Evans Electric]

Every year in B,ham city centre there is a very large German Market made up of stallholders from Frankfort  ,   All very good for forging friendships with our European cousins  .  This fills the main square and the whole of the main shopping street.

:slap

why does he have an Irish flag on his jacket?!

Very perceptive Steptoe. I can only suggest that he's on the side of the Nationalists.

Bet you weren't expecting that from an Englishman!

 

[steptoe]

there a lot of 'englishmen' on the side of the nationalists,

the previous PM for a start, or was that his boss, Cherry.?

anyway, I think thats just wrong for a situation like that, no matter what your political view.

TBH, [and I can't be arsed to research this] I'd guess the chap wearing the jacket is Welsh and they are also trying to represent Scotland, England and NI, just getting the republic's flag by accident.

 

[steptoe]

thats what I thought by the fact the dragon was by far the largest,

does my head in when folks cant differentiate between NI and ROI, its like me saying Wales is the same as England,

its pure ignorance on peoples part.
