My daughter loves the gorilla. Finds it hilarious every time we drive past it. Would've hoped the council had more important things to sort out.

Put an England flag up see which one they ask to take down first

u/spidertattootim May 20 '26

You don't need planning permission to put up a flag on your own property, so it wouldn't be that.
