Suspended Labour MP Rachael Maskell says her ‘stomach churned’ when seeing colleagues waving St George’s flags.

Interesting. Extracts from her Wiki page:

“Speaking at a university event, Ms Maskell said: “I personally think we need a little bit of a break from flags right now, and my stomach churned at Labour party conference when everyone got out their St George’s flag… that’s not the Labour party.”

In September 2015, during the European refugee crisis, Maskell called on the UK to open its doors to refugees…

On 5 March 2019, Maskell joined a dozen other Labour MPs on Westminster Bridge, next to the Houses of Parliament, in a protest against Brexit under the banner “Love Socialism Hate Brexit”…

In 2023 Maskell suggested that English local councils should introduce maximum speed limits of 10mph in residential areas…

On 5 November 2024, Maskell tabled an early day motion calling for the introduction of a “Gaza Family Visa Scheme” based on the Ukraine Family Scheme, which would allow those affected by the Gaza war to seek refuge in the UK…”
