PATRIOTS have been banned from painting a 60ft England flag on the side of a building just because they are planning to use human blood for the red bits.
Left-wing council chiefs said the image could be offensive to those who do not support England or do not like the idea of a enormous public mural painted with human blood.
But Wayne Hayes, the Stevenage scaffolder who designed the World Cup morale booster, said: “I can’t see what’s offensive about it. It’s England. Unless supporting your country offends these snowflakes?
“I’ve already backed our boys by completely covering the windscreen of my Transit van with a giant England fan, and when I’m driving down the M1 everyone’s beeping their horns in support.
“But when me and Steve build a wall painted with the England flag blocking the entrance to our local A&E, to cheer the patients up, sure enough a man from the council says we have to knock it down. Can someone please tell me what’s happened to this country?
“If we’d painted two men having sex on it then they’d have given me an Arts Council grant. It’s two-tier Britain in action.”
Martin Bishop, from Peterborough, added: “I’ve had little England flags tattooed onto the inside of my eyes. They had to go in through the back of my head with a drill and gouge out some of my brain. But I suppose that should have been banned as well, should it?
“Actually, it probably should. I can’t see anything and I’m pretty sure I’m going to die.”
