'Raise the Colours'

Tensions in the United Kingdom have escalated significantly, with civil unrest approaching dangerous levels. At the heart of the division is the contentious issue of illegal immigration. Many British citizens have expressed frustration over the increasing number of migrants crossing the English Channel and entering the country illegally. One form of protest is a campaign known as ‘Operation Raise the Colours’, where individuals display the Flag of England and the Union Jack in public spaces. Critics argue that the flags are racist, and they have gone so far as to call for a parliamentary ban on them. How is this situation similar to the ongoing immigration debate in the United States, and how has the success of the Trump administration at reducing illegal immigration inspired some in the UK to demand similar government action?
