‘Grand Tour’ Presenter Stands Ground After Calling Rows Of Pride Flags “Oppressive”
Authored by Steve Watson via Modernity.news,
British TV presenter James May, most famous for being a part of motoring shows The Grand Tour and Top Gear with Jeremy Clarkson, is under fire for pointing out that the uniform rows and rows of Pride flags installed every year in central London look “oppressive.”
May made what was supposed to be a tongue in cheek comment on X, noting that while he has “observed and admired” the Pride movement for years, the recent displays are guilty of “Too Much Bunting,” which “may be seen as authoritarian, and therefore oppressive.”
May added, “Please remember that some terrible things, with which you would not wish to be allied, began with TMB. World War Two, for example. Nice flag, though.”
Pride: while I have observed and admired what you have achieved over my lifetime, may I respectfully suggest that you are borderline guilty of Too Much Bunting (TMB). It may be seen as authoritarian, and therefore oppressive.

And then they came for him.
But May stood firm.
I haven’t done that, though, have I?
— James May (@MrJamesMay) June 13, 2024
I’m not suggesting anything of the sort.
— James May (@MrJamesMay) June 13, 2024
I’m saying that the essential message may end up being misconstrued.
— James May (@MrJamesMay) June 13, 2024
Because excessive, uniform, and regimented bunting has negative connotations for some people.

When there is another royal wedding we can rejoin this discussion about TMB. There will probably be too much.

I’m not opposed to it, just worried that it’s overdone.
— James May (@MrJamesMay) June 13, 2024
An excess of bunting makes people nervous, which won’t help their cause.
— James May (@MrJamesMay) June 13, 2024
Still they came at May:
No I haven’t.

The Nazis’. But I wasn’t comparing the Pride movement to them.
— James May (@MrJamesMay) June 13, 2024
Stand by.
— James May (@MrJamesMay) June 13, 2024
How dare he talk in any way negatively about the precious symbol.
I’m not, no. Stand down.
— James May (@MrJamesMay) June 13, 2024
What about Christmas lights though?
Christmas lights are not uniform and regimented bunting.
— James May (@MrJamesMay) June 13, 2024
They kept coming and May kept batting them away:
I think I agree.
— James May (@MrJamesMay) June 13, 2024
Did I say this was fine?
— James May (@MrJamesMay) June 13, 2024
Of God, supposedly. Your point?
— James May (@MrJamesMay) June 13, 2024
No dog whistling intended, and my stance on homophobia was, I hope, clear from the post.
— James May (@MrJamesMay) June 13, 2024
But but but Nazis uh uh uh:
No. Relax.
— James May (@MrJamesMay) June 13, 2024
I most definitely am not.
— James May (@MrJamesMay) June 13, 2024
He wasn’t backing away.
This is a poorly written post. It should have been ‘SOGTTGAR (Sad old git trying to get a rise) syndrome’. https://t.co/7VwlW5474X

Some among the LGBTQ community agreed with May’s original point of ‘it’s a bit over the top’.
Don’t worry James, the sensible minded among us understand your point exactly. I agree, and I’m part of LGBTQ+ myself, and I agree.

Flags are interesting.
