Ukrainian flag on St Helena

 
The St Helena Government have raised the flag of Ukraine outside Plantation House. It now flies between the poles of the Saint Helena, Ascension and Tristan da Cunha triumvirate.

This copies the actions in other countries of flying the flag or projecting it onto famous monuments like the Sydney Opera House, Nelson's Column or the Brandenburg Gate. Where on earth did anybody even find a Ukrainian flag on St Helena? I suppose they could have quickly made one from scrap textile. It's a simple colour, just blue and yellow horizontal stripes. I hope one wasn't specially flown in. Maybe they can use it as bedding for Jonathan afterwards. We are seeing all my predictions about the dark side of St Helena's new international age coming true, sadly. This would never have happened before the airport was built. Before then, the Saints paid very little attention to global current affairs because such affairs didn't affect them. Today, St Helena is sounding more and more like Chipping Norton. The difference is, Chipping Norton has had a thousand years to adjust to living in the modern world. St Helena has had seven. From my perspective, the Saints seem to be suffering for it, like the Australian Aborigines who turned to drink when their land was discovered by the outside world. There is even a page about Covid vaccinations for five to eleven-year-olds on their gov.sh site, see: https://www.sainthelena.gov.sh/2022/news/covid-19-paediatric-vaccines-extended-period-for-parental-consent/. This is on one of the remotest inhabited islands on earth. As David Icke says, it makes you want to eat a cushion!
