THE European Union flag can no longer be flown in the UK without government permission.<\/strong><\/p>\n

Consent wasn\u2019t previously required and the move will be seen as an \u201cup yours\u201d to Remain supporters.<\/p>\n

<\/p>\n

The Government\u2019s website on guidance for \u201cFlying flags: A Plain English guide\u201d was quietly updated on July 20 to include the guidance.<\/p>\n

It now states: "Following the UK\u2019s departure from the European Union, the flag of the European Union is no longer included in the list of flags that do not require consent."<\/p>\n

The move is separate from instructions to councils which requires them to display EU flags as a condition for receiving high street Covid recovery cash from Brussels.<\/p>\n
