  The following is an extract from:-
  
  http://www.royal.gov.uk/MonarchUK/Symbols/UnionJack.aspx
  
  
  'The flying of the Union Flag on public buildings is decided by the Department for Culture, Media and Sport at The Queen's command.
  
  The Union Flag is flown on Government buildings on days marking the birthdays of members of the Royal Family, Commonwealth Day, Coronation Day, The Queen's official birthday, Remembrance Day and on the days of the State Opening and prorogation of Parliament.'
  
  .....it's sad that the union flag is thought to 'spoil the view' on a day that we remember those who died in defence of our freedom. I hope that those who might say, "my Daddy never came home" will be allowed to carry a flag, if they so wish.
