    Well, they'd just have to go fu*k themselves then, instead of forcing "Europeaness" on us.

    You would actually ban someone flying a flag of their choice? That's what you said you'd do. Read it again.

    That's a moronic thing to do.

    [QUOTE=He3;4895688]The European Parliament wants all national sports teams in the EU to have the EU flag on their kit.

    The resolution was passed by a large majority today.

    Ireland plays Wales on Sunday in the 6 Nations (dodgy word there) Rugby. There is just enough time to stitch the EU emblem onto the green jerseys.

    Should we do it?


    You couldn't make this up!

    Forcing someone to wear a flag when they don't want to is any better? Also, there's a reason why the old N. Ireland flag is banned over government buildings in N. Ireland.......

    Nope. Irish law. Car numberplates are mandated in a certain form according to Irish law.

    Read the article again. There is no suggestion of compulsion.
