How Many Years Make A "Tradition"?

>> SATURDAY, MAY 07, 2011

...so how many years makes for a "tradition"? With the BBC; not so many when it suits them.

Number 10 shuns EU flagtradition Downing Street will not fly the EU flag over Number 10 during Europe Day on Monday unlike previous years, the BBC has learned.

The Royal Wedding...traditional. Morris dancing...traditional. Flying the EU flag? Meh.

The UK's relationship with Europe is a potential source of tension between the Conservative and Liberal Democrat coalition partners.

Making an uncalled for political point about the whole thing the BBCs own Laura Kuenssberg tweets:

No 10, FCO + Treasury decide not to fly EU flag for Europe day on Monday, but Vince’s BIS dept will! (DECC conviently has no flagpole)

Really? The Coalition must be doomed. Doooomed! The BBC - looking for splits wherever they can...

If Only...
