I live on a newish housing estate where everyone is white. Recently a Pakistani family rented the house next door. They seem like a really nice family and I personally could not care less about the colour of their skin or their religion. When I returned home from work this evening I was opening the windows of the upstairs to let some air in when I noticed that people whose house backs on to our next door neighbours have attached a union jack flag to their washing line. Is this simply a bit of proud patriotism or is it as I suspect there to make the new family feel uncomfortable? It seems to me to have been positioned so that our new neighbours cannot miss it when they look out onto their garden. Strange how this patriotism hasn't surfaced before! I feel deeply uneasy about this but don't know if DH and I are overeacting. Any ideas anyone? Really don't know what to do
