US vice-president JD Vance has urged Brits to 'push back against the crazies' as he waded into a row over Union Jack and St George's Cross flags.
Huge numbers of UK or English flags have been put up in cities, towns and villages across Britain in recent weeks.
Campaigners put the flags on display following an online movement called 'Operation Raise the Colours'.
But it sparked a row after some local councils, such as Tower Hamlets and Birmingham, took them down from council-owned infrastructure such as lampposts.
The local authorities cited health and safety reasons for removing the flags.
