Whatever the markings are or whyever they “made the news”.
Could you perhaps give a hint rather than just post blind unexplained links?

It all seems pretty clear from the article. Some people in the UK can get a bit shirty if the Union Jack is flown back to front (a distress signal, albeit a very subtle one?), so I can understand the issue, but also the reasoning behind it.
Well, not clear to me (before your post) because I don’t open links where the poster of the link refuses to say what the link is actually about.*
And no, the thread title is not sufficient.
* that’s how you get to websites with malicious coding & virus issues.

This is the same issue as with the pennants painted on RAF aircraft. The pennant should always be painted using the same logic but so often with triangular pennants the point is facing forwards.
