A brilliant picture has emerged on Twitter regarding a banner battle between a pro-Brexit and Remain neighbours.
The two banners were hung on opposite balconies in Gospel Oak, North London.
Frank Chalmers, 61, added to the words “Vote Leave” with a homemade slogan: “… If you want to cut workers’ rights.”
The image has proved an online hit after it was posted on Twitter by Frank’s son Malcolm, 33.
Unlike the Conservative party there is no bad blood between the neighbours.
Malcolm told the Evening Standard: “He gave the neighbours a bottle of wine as a peace offering.
“Everyone’s entitled to their opinion and my dad’s just the type of person who likes to make a point in a humorous manner.”
My parent’s neighbours have put up a large ‘Vote Leave’ sign. It seems my dad’s response is to get creative. #Remain pic.twitter.com/2TRffzkfD4

Since you are here
Since you are here, we wanted to ask for your help.
Journalism in Britain is under threat. The government is becoming increasingly authoritarian and our media is run by a handful of billionaires, most of whom reside overseas and all of them have strong political allegiances and financial motivations.
Our mission is to hold the powerful to account. It is vital that free media is allowed to exist to expose hypocrisy, corruption, wrongdoing and abuse of power. But we can't do it without you.
