Roundabouts graffitied with St George flag

Six mini-roundabouts in Birmingham have been spray painted with with red crosses.

Birmingham City Council say "we proudly fly the Union flag outside the Council House every day and recognise the importance of the Union Flag and Flag of St George as symbols of national pride. Brummies are proud to be British and proud that this is a welcoming city celebrating many different cultures.
"When it comes to items attached to lamp posts, it is normal council procedure for these to be removed on a regular basis, in line with our health and safety obligations."

"As has always been the case, people are free to fly or hang flags from their homes or gardens, but we ask that they are not attached to street furniture."
