"The Council of Europe ... also uses (and originated) the same flag as the EU."

Indeed! This is why the Gov's nationalistic attempt to effectively ban the flying of EU flags* has failed.** As such, I'm flying one all weeked to celebrate our ongoing membership of the Council (of which HRH appears to be a fan).

*See here: "Following the UK’s departure from the European Union, the flag of the European Union is no longer included in the list of flags that do not require [planning] consent."

**"The full list of flags that do not require consent [includes] ... The flag of the Commonwealth, the United Nations or any other international organisation of which the United Kingdom is a member." i.e., including the Council of Europe. D'Oh!
