Leaders of the nationalist group Raise the Colours agree to stop hoisting St George’s flags from lamp-posts on Oxfordshire County Council property, following a legal dispute brought by the local authority. In court, representatives Ryan Bridge, Ben Cullen and Trudy Wells told the High Court that they will not place St George’s flags on council land and will not encourage others to do so. They also agreed not to impede council workers who remove any flags. The council sought a high court injunction after it alleged the group had intimidated staff involved in taking down the flags. The court hearing focuses on commitments made by the individuals to change the group’s conduct and to avoid further enforcement action related to the flag hoisting. Under the agreed terms, the group’s activity at specified locations controlled by the council is expected to end, and council staff should be able to remove any existing flags without obstruction. The case reflects ongoing tension between the group’s flag-raising campaign and the council’s concerns about compliance with property rules and the treatment of its workers.
