Indeed.
I'm surprised that they didn't just fly swastikas to signify their true allegiance as the cucks of Germany.
A role they reprise to this day.

Fury as French officials 'remove' Britain's Union Jack from display of hundreds of flags to mark D-Day in Normandy town......
Britons have reacted with fury after the Union Jack appeared to have been removed by French officials celebrating the anniversary of D-Day in a French town in Normandy.
Pictures from previous years show flag bunting depicting all the nations involved in the Allied resistance to the Nazis adorning the streets of the charming town of Carentan.
But images from this year show new bunting that appears to showcase the flags of all EU member states, the EU flag itself, as well as Canada and the US - but no British flag.
I guess the story drags attention away from failings — such as polluted lakes, rivers and water supplies — in the UK today, and helps move commentators away from such topics as UK homeless figures being the highest in the developed world, cost of food and energy, etc, etc, etc… www.ft.com/content/24117a03-37c2-424a-97ed-6a5292f9e92eThat ^ has to be the most blatant case of whataboutery I've ever seen. In fact, it's almost impressive. |

At least Putin said the other day, that if he would see a French army turn up in Ukraine, then they will deal with it. But he wont even consider it an issue at this point. The chances of seeing a French army turn up is almost zero......

Due to its proximity to the French coastline, Carentan was a vital town for the Allies to capture during the D-Day operation, which saw tens of thousands of soldiers land on French shores in the biggest military operation of its kind.
Around 10,000 allied soldiers were killed in the operation, including thousands of troops from the UK and US.
Cheese eating surrender monkeys. I'm disgusted by the French removing union jacks, but in all honesty, I'm not surprised. |

Pat longs to be a victim and not so long ago he could rely on the local constabulary to give him regular beatings because, well sod it, why not ? But that seems to have tailed off and now he is forced to rely on the Climate Change industry for his regular input of self pity
