schema:text	What was claimed Remain supporters burnt Union Flags. Our verdict At least one image of a Union Flag burning was faked. Remain supporters burnt Union Flags. At least one image of a Union Flag burning was faked. A post on Facebook claims that Remain supporters burnt Union Jack flags at a protest, showing two images of these supposed events. However, one widely-shared image of a flag burning is fake; a photo from protests in March 2019 has been edited to add the burning flag. The original image of the burning flag comes from a video of protest in Argentina regarding the Falklands. Another instance of flag burning does appear to have taken place; a video showing a souvenir flag being burned, allegedly during this weekend’s protests against the prorogation of Parliament, was shared by Mail Online. However, it’s unclear from the video exactly when it was taken or what cause they’re trying to support or oppose. The video is 14 seconds long, and there are no other protesters visible in the shot. This article is part of our work fact checking potentially false pictures, videos and stories on Facebook. You can read more about this—and find out how to report Facebook content—here. For the purposes of that scheme, we’ve rated this claim as mixture as at least one image of a flag burning has been edited. Full Fact fights for good, reliable information in the media, online, and in politics.
