That did not occur to me - a conspiracy theory within their ranks. Maybe he was getting out of control, over the top, radical and he had to be stopped (?)
In the news:
"Stirchley locals and raise the colours
The conflict between Stirchley locals and the 'Raise the Colours' group has been marked by intimidation, harassment, and confrontations. The group, led by Ryan Bridge and Elliott Stanley, has been accused of using their flag campaign to intimidate and divide the community. Residents have reported feeling threatened by the group's actions, leading to a love not hate meet-up organized by locals to address the issue. The group's co-founder, Ryan Bridge, has faced legal issues, including an investigation for fraud and a conviction for racially aggravated harassment. Despite the group's attempts to replace flags that had been taken down, the community has shown a strong stance against their actions, with residents actively participating in local efforts to remove the flags. The situation has raised concerns about the safety and well-being of Stirchley residents and the potential for further escalation in tensions."
