Illegal flags all along St George’s Road and in Wallingford

Sent to Oxfordshire County Council less than a minute later
Over the Easter weekend, flags have been affixed illegally all along St George’s Road to council posts (mostly those showing parking restrictions) and telegraph poles. The ones around Wallingford School are particularly worrying. This is now beyond a joke and I would respectfully ask that they’re taken down soonest. Finally, I heard the BBC interview with your Liz Leffman with interest - many thanks for your stance!
