EU flags were confiscated from Last Night of the Proms concert-goers yesterday following strict rules banning 'protest' and 'hatred'.  The concert celebrates British tradition with patriotic music of the United Kingdom and was held at the Royal Albert Hall in London last night.  The venue last month released guidance banning flags, 'including those from prescribed groups, flags related to protest, hatred' from the Proms finale.  But there seemed to be confusion among security staff at the event last night, as some concert-goers had flags taken from them at the door while others entered the venue carrying the yellow and blue flags without difficulty.  Last night, people from the pro-EU group Thank EU for slot777 the Music were handing out EU flags outside the venue as part of a demonstration.  The concert has previously seen anti-Brexit protesters holding EU flags during a campaign by a pro-Europe group.  Were YOU there?

Comment now The venue's statement that some flags are not allowed reportedly came after public concern over the growing number of audience members holding the EU flag instead of the Union Jack flag at the Last Night concert.  Two security guards were seen confiscating EU flags from ticket-holders as they went through the back check area, The Telegraph reported.  London
