The crew at Hathersage Fire Station had planted some Union Jack flags outside their building ahead of the Queen’s Platinum Jubilee celebrations, which are taking place from Thursday, June 2.

In a Facebook post, a crew member revealed that they had left the station at around 9.00pm yesterday evening, and no damage had been caused. When they returned this morning, however, someone had defaced the flag with vulgar graffiti.
