Ignore, the Council have no powers to ask someone to remove a national flag.

Ok Rog mate! The finance department of the council are moving to the old town hall. Not sure how the council can take a national flag down, i will phone councillor Lloyd(who is councillor in that area), to see why it was taken down.

ask the council if they could take the flags down from the ramparts of cardiff castle, as surely these are offensive as well??
