However Brussels has already ruled out both blue and green on the grounds of geographic misrepresentation. Other rejected suggestions were Nick Clegg’s idea for a ‘pretty rainbow’ and UKIP’s bid to paint a ‘fucking great Union Jack on the cliffs, a Churchillian V-sign on the beach and bring back Vera Lynn.’</p> <p>Gordon Brown said ‘I think health, education and the economy are more important to the British people than the colour of the cliffs.’ </p>
