Isn’t putting up flags an American thing too? Don’t really see this kind of nationalism in other coutnries.

The EDL often used the England St George Cross flag. The National Front used the British Union Jack flag.

I think the only other time you see our flags apart from sport, is for royal family related days off work, which about all they're good for.
