It is all fun and games until somebody loses an eye

Swansea-based flag-maker, Mr Flag warns protestors against flag-burning. I expect this is as much to do with indemnity as altruism.

"Modern flags are now made largely of polyester and when they burn they melt," said Mr Flag. "That means if they are whirled around by a protester, his or her fellow protesters could be splashed by flying pieces of burning material. If it got into the eye it could do serious damage so we are about to issue a warning to this effect on our website."
