the badges are in support of British troops, the badges cost £1 with proceeds going to the Help for Heroes charity, about 100 officers in the Metropolitan force's SO18 Aviation branch, which patrols Heathrow, bought the inch-square badges, seventy per cent of them served in the Forces and many have children fighting in Afghanistan,
one officer asked: "How can the Union Jack be offensive? this ruling is even more absurd coming this weekend on the 65th anniversary of the D-Day landings, "We must be the only country ashamed to display our national flag."
another cop said: "We're wearing the badges with pride, most importantly, they are to show support for our soldiers at war, nobody has put out orders to remove rainbow symbols that gay and lesbian officers wear, why discriminate against us?"
message to top bosses at the Met, you are a disgrace to the uniform you wear, you deserve not one shred of respect from the public you serve.

In An Appalling Display Of Insensitivity,
bosses at Heathrow airport police have told cops the inch-square badges are offensive!
the badges are in support of British troops, the badges cost £1 with proceeds going to the Help for Heroes charity, about 100 officers in the Metropolitan force's SO18 Aviation branch, which patrols Heathrow, bought the inch-square badges, seventy per cent of them served in the Forces and many have children fighting in Afghanistan,
one officer asked: "How can the Union Jack be offensive? this ruling is even more absurd coming this weekend on the 65th anniversary of the D-Day landings, "We must be the only country ashamed to display our national flag."
