Original Note:
It’s not illegal to burn religious books or the Union Jack in the UK. A 47 year old man was arrested for disrupting the ‘Glade of Light festival’ which honours those who died at the Manchester Arena bombings. He burned a Quran next to a memorial statue. https://www.manchester.gov.uk/info/500369/glade_of_light_memorial/8206/the_glade_of_light_memorial https://www.thesun.co.uk/news/11845899/burning-union-jack-flag-illegal-uk/ https://petition.parliament.uk/archived/petitions/16798
