Welsh Flag to Fly Over Downing Street

The Welsh flag will fly over Downing Street on Saturday in support of the last British team remaining in the Rugby World Cup.

 In response to a campaign from welsh rugby fans the Prime Minister allowed the move despite the fact that flying the Red Dragon over downing street is a break with tradition.

 

“We would usually only fly a home nation flag for a final, but I know how important a competition this is and we all want to get behind Wales so I have decided to break with tradition on this occasion and fly the flag for Wales in Downing Street on Saturday,” he said.

“Wales are the last home nation competing in the Rugby World Cup and I wish them every success in their semi final against France on Saturday.”

We at Llanellitown.com would like to wish the very best of luck to our National Team on saturday.  Let’s hope they smash the French!
