Video of workmen in London removing a Union Jack flag from another massive display of 'Pride' flags has gone viral after drawing the ire of many online.

It appears that someone somehow attached the national UK flag to one of the many Pride flags that have been placed on London's Regent Street.

Regent Street is owned by the Crown Estate. It is in the centre of London, representing the heart of our country.

Trans-racial LGBTQ+ flags have been adorned all the way down the street.

It seems someone attached a Union flag to one of them and it has been torn down and dropped…

The person who filmed the video is heard telling the workmen "you're taking the wrong f***ing flag down mate," to which one of the workmen replies "you think I don't know that?" and another concurs "we know that."

This week will be your last chance to see the Union Jack flags soaring above the iconic Regent Street curve. The flags will be coming down this Saturday, 10th June 🇬🇧🇬🇧

The huge display of occupation Pride flags has again been erected on Regent street, ironically replacing a display of Union Jacks that were placed in celebration of the coronation of King Charles III.
