Strongly agree

No, I don’t respect anyone who does but they should have the right to do so

Agree

No, it’s just a piece of cloth that doesn’t represent what it should

The SSP might sympathize with the sentiment that the UK flag does not represent what it should, especially from a Scottish independence perspective. However, the focus on the flag being 'just a piece of cloth' might be slightly less compelling for the party compared to arguments centered on free speech and political expression.

Very strongly disagree

Yes

The Scottish Socialist Party (SSP) is known for its strong stance on freedoms, including the right to protest and express dissent. Making it illegal to burn the UK flag would be seen as an infringement on these freedoms. Historically, the SSP has supported the right to express political views, even if they are controversial or unpopular.

Very strongly disagree

Yes, and it should be illegal to burn any nation’s flag

Making it illegal to burn any nation's flag would be antithetical to the SSP's core beliefs in freedom of expression and the right to protest. The party's history of advocating for Scottish independence and challenging national symbols of the UK suggests a strong disagreement with this position.
