U.S. Vice President Vance Backs U.K. ‘Raise the Colours’ Flag Campaign

U.S. Vice President JD Vance on 29 Aug. voiced public support for the U.K.’s viral “Raise the Colours” campaign, which encourages citizens to fly the Union Jack and St George’s flag. In a statement circulated by U.S. and European media outlets, Vance said Britons should “push back against the crazies” who are offended by national symbols and Western cultural heritage. The vice-president’s remarks extend beyond Britain; he urged “our European friends” to defend their own flags and traditions, framing the issue as part of a broader fight for sovereignty and free speech. Vance did not outline any specific policy steps, but his comments mark one of the most direct interventions by a senior U.S. official in Europe’s ongoing cultural debates over national identity.
