UNION flag be flown from all Scottish Public buildings, and not the EU Flag

Rejected 21 signatures

What the petition asks

Insist that the Scottish Assembly, comply with the wishes of the petitioners, and that of the UK Government, and fly ONLY the official UK flag of our United Kingdom on Public Buildings.
The SNP Government have stated, that in future, only the EU flag will be flown on Public Buildings in Scotland, and that the UK (Union) Flag, will only be flown on remembrance days. We (the Petitioners) do not think this is acceptable, and is for political purposes only, ie. the Independance movement, promoted by the SNP and it's followers.

Why it was rejected

It asked for something that is not the responsibility of the UK Government or Parliament.

This is a matter for individual businesses and property owners in Scotland, not the UK Government or Parliament.
