Birmingham City Council has asked the High Court to stop Raise the Colours co-founder Ryan Bridge and his group attaching flags to street furniture and other public property. The council says the campaign caused danger, alarm and distress. Bridge's lawyer argued the injunction would silence political views protected by human rights law. Judge Emma Kelly reserved judgment, with a written ruling expected later this week.
