phart Posted November 24, 2015 Share Posted November 24, 2015 And now the story of stupid wee sign has reached Russia. https://www.rt.com/uk/323115-islamic-state-larkhall-sign/ " Larkhall itself is no stranger to religious tension, having been dubbed one of Britain’s most sectarian towns. This is evidenced by the town’s attitude to the color green, which is traditionally associated with Celtic football club, Catholicism and the Irish republican tradition. Reports suggest that anti-Catholic sectarianism is so strong among the town’s largely Protestant, Rangers-supporting population, that the local branch of fast food chain Subway is not colored in the brand’s usual green, and the local pharmacy also reportedly changed its own color from green to red, white and blue in 2002. Between 2004 and 2005, 205 green lights on local sets of traffic lights were smashed." lol Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I thought those stories were urban legends, fished out by a lazy journalist, was there really a spate where 3 days couldn't go past without someone smashing a green traffic light?
