Union Logo

From the BBC:
"Union jack to be displayed on publicly-funded projects"

Plaques featuring the union jack and the line "funded by the UK government" are to be displayed on publically-funded projects in Britain. Treasury Secretary Danny Alexander, who will announce the move on Monday, said the plaques would "proudly adorn infrastructure investments from roads in Cornwall to broadband in Caithness".  The aim was to recognise UK taxpayers' contributions, he said.
Projects that receive European Union funding have displayed information about it for many years.
Under the plan, companies that win contracts to build new infrastructure will have to display the logo on the finished project. But it has sparked speculation that the government is attempting to shore up support for the union and stem rising support for the SNP.

 
^ I see no problem with displaying the Union Jack flag symbol on any project the British Government in London pays for throughout England, Scotland and Wales. I hope they are smart enough to not include Northern Ireland in this as that will just bring more violence. Of course it is a way for London to show Great Britain just what they are doing for the ordinary people   - every government in every country tries to do that. ^
