What is Operation Raise the Colours?
Operation Raise the Colours is the movement of men erecting flags around the country. Although every square metre of the UK now has 1,488 flags on it, things are still rotten in Great Britain, suggesting the issue was never a scantness of bunting.

Shame someone had to die to show the true colours of this nasty individual.
The Far-right has form. Over 40% of men arrested during the Southport riot had a conviction for domestic violence.
So much for making Britain safe and protecting women!
It’s the far left who are turning this country into a total cesspit. Troll
given you are commenting on a left wing news site, perhaps you may be the troll?
why tf is there a 1488 reference in this???
14 and 88 are significant numbers for Nazis
Innocent bloke Innocent fight he’s bigger then him sorry he the bigger person I seen the it god forbid the lad who died but he he went in to fight and that man the bald head was just being there self defence he had to fight back
Can you say that in English please? Cheers.
Let’s hear what a jury has to say.
Pushing someone unarmed away from you is self defence. Punching someone unnecessarily hard enough to kill them is manslaughter.
If you saw it happen, you will be called up as a witness in court. Not sure you’re allowed to be talking about it.
That’s if you were genuinely there of course
If that’s the case then you should tell the police and say it under oath at a trial considering the importance of what you’re saying. Otherwise, don’t chat shit.
Did you suxk his cock as well while you were there
I was there and it was completely unprovoked, you’re chatting absolute waffle pal.
His name was Matt O’Gara and we grew up with him in Solihull. Nicest bloke ever.
My heart goes out to the victims and their families.
Where is the humanity today?
Why are people behaving like sheep and following these nasty people?
It’s the problem of alcohol that’s why that man with the bald head I heard him say a few times mate just leave it just leave it and then that boy who died so horrible but he never stoppped absolutely terrible
That still doesn’t justify punching someone hard enough to kill them because they were bothering you.
In all fairness, if a drunken man is coming at you constantly, you’re going to hit as hard you can so he backs off.
As formal charges have been laid, comments really should be turned off to avoid prejudicing court proceedings.
I would have done same so he didn’t come bk
I would have done same so he didn’t come bk not to kill so he didn’t get up
