Shropshire Council initially banned a taxi driver, Basil Brockhurst, from displaying the Union Flag on his car, calling it 'needlessly divisive'. This sparked outrage as Brockhurst is a military veteran with 30 years of service. The issue of national pride and the controversy surrounding the Union Jack was discussed on GB News. The decision was later reversed, allowing Brockhurst to display the flag on his taxi.
