Question to the Foreign, Commonwealth & Development Office:
To ask Her Majesty’s Government, further to the Written Answer by Baroness Anelay of St Johns on 4 July (HL763), why the pride flag was not flown over the British Embassy in Ankara when the pride flag has been flown over embassies in Paris, Oslo, Tel Aviv and Santiago.
This question was answered on 13th July 2016
The Rainbow flag was previously flown at some United Kingdom Diplomatic missions. Since 2015, following the implementation of a simple, clear and consistent flag flying policy, United Kingdom Diplomatic missions have only flown the Diplomatic, Union or Consular flag, the flags of the constituent countries of the UK on their respective national days and in certain countries, the European flag. United Kingdom Diplomatic missions do not fly any other flags.
