We will never surrender our flag, Sir Keir Starmer says

In a speech, UK Prime Minister Sir Keir Starmer stated that the British flag will never be surrendered, as it represents the country's diversity. He emphasized that the government will not allow people to feel intimidated or that the flag belongs to any particular group. Starmer's comments come amid concerns that the flag has been increasingly associated with right-wing and nationalist movements. The prime minister argued that the flag belongs to all citizens and should not be claimed by any one political ideology. The speech aimed to reaffirm the government's position on the national symbol, emphasizing its inclusive nature and the importance of preventing its misuse for divisive purposes. Starmer's remarks underscored the need to maintain the flag as a unifying emblem that celebrates the United Kingdom's diversity and unity.
