The national flag terrifies the woke elites because it’s a statement of collectivity, of connection, of a yearning for social solidarity. It speaks to the dominance of individual identity. The Pride flag is the perfect hollow symbol for our hollow times. But what we have in the omnipresence of Pride flags is something worse: identitarian chauvinism. Waving the Union flag is national chauvinism, the woke left says. The bigger truth about Pride and its annual orgy of flag-shagging is that it confirms the almost unstoppable ascendancy of identity politics, and that the ruling classes of the West are perfectly at ease with this politics. These corporations and military machines are ‘pink-washing’, they claim, the idea being that they use the rainbow flag to distract attention from their normal immoral antics. What is this all about? Every now and then radical leftists will venture mild criticisms of Pride’s increasingly cosy relationship with capitalism and even with Empire. Fail to fly it and you risk being considered prejudiced, hateful, unsafe. The Pride flag is a statement of virtue and civilisation. One Borrowash resident said the absence of a Pride flag would mean that some people would not ‘feel safe to come to the village’. ‘Anger as Pride Month flag snubbed by Derbyshire council again’, said an actual BBC News headline. For the second year running Ockbrook and Borrowash Parish Council in Derbyshire has voted against flying the Pride flag and people are going mental. If you fail to wave the flag you’ll be looked upon as suspect. Pride flag-shagging is now virtually mandatory. And yet he happily bows to the political, corporate and even military pressure to cover oneself in rainbows – head to toe in his case – every June. This is the man who made a big deal of refusing to wear a poppy and complaining about ‘a rather unpleasant breed of poppy fascism’. Channel 4’s Jon Snow has worn Pride socks and a Pride tie and possibly Pride underwear for all we know. Remember Justin Trudeau’s Pride socks? The New York Times gushed over his ‘socks diplomacy’. The most virtuous signallers don’t only wave the Pride flag – they wear it. (It is testament to the insanity of intersectionalism that the only complaint about this conceited act of corporate virtue-signalling was that the sweets were white.) Skittles surely caused even Pride aficionados’ eyes to roll when they released limited-edition white versions of their sweets, because ‘we are giving up our rainbow to show support for the LGBTQ+ community’. McDonald’s has created Rainbow-coloured boxes for its French fries, which was definitely one of the key demands of the radicals who took part in the Stonewall riot of 1969 that Pride is meant to commemorate. Who can forget M&S’s Pride sandwich, which was basically a club sandwich with added guacamole (‘Gays like guacamole, right?’). I preferred him when he was bullying Walter the Softy.

It posted a comic strip featuring Dennis the Menace in a Pride-coloured jumper. If this doesn’t become a meme featuring someone in the Middle East saying ‘They say the next bombs will be dropped by people who believe in gay rights! Don’t you love progress!’, I will lose all faith in the internet.

It is using Pride Month to showcase its British Army LGBT+ Network. They’ll do dad-dancing at Pride marches and everyone will go wild for it (except the Daily Mail probably). That was a very expensive way of saying: ‘We’re nice, I swear.’Ĭops will wear Pride-coloured badges. Coutts Bank on The Strand in London once painted its entire facade in the Pride colours. Go to a cashpoint machine and you’ll be told about Pride. I can’t be the only person who found the photo of school pupils wearing Pride face masks beneath a vast Pride flag somewhat chilling. Some schools in Scotland will fly the flag for the whole month. The Pride flag will flutter from town halls across the country.

And yet the people who cry ‘flag-shagger!’ every time Keir Starmer stands stiffly next to the Union flag, or when Robert Jenrick goes on TV with a backdrop of showy British memorabilia, are curiously silent about the adorning of every building in the land with the bloody Pride flag. I haven’t seen this much smug flag-waving since 100,000 Guardian readers wrapped in the EU colours, tears streaking their blue-painted faces, descended on Whitehall to demand the cancellation of stupid northern people’s votes.
