POLICE are hunting Eastern European thugs who stabbed a company director - because he was wearing a Union Jack T-shirt. Ian Edwards, 52, was walking home after attending a Proms in the Park music concert when he was attacked by four yobs.

The gang pointed at his patriotic T-shirt and punched and kicked him repeatedly before one of them stabbed him in the arm.

Police are treating the attack as a hate crime after Ian told officers he suspected he was targeted because of what he was wearing.

It isn't a good idea to do anything to draw attention to yourself!

My son was wearing an English flag T-Shirt in "Playa de las Américas", whilst walking, I think, close to the cliff edge, with his girl friend.

He was set upon by four Spanish yobs, and beaten, and they took his new trainers!

He spent half a day in hospital, and half a day with the police.

A company director should wear a tie and a bowler hat.

TBF to the BBC they ARE carrying about a story about how gay Nigeria is. It's actually a video under the heading: 'Must See' Crazy

God forbid they run stories about how UK citizens are attacked by foreigners for displaying our flag..
