It's supposed to be the colour of brexiteers cheeks when they talk about Brexit.

Your confusing the pink colour of gammon with the red colour of the communist flag.
White is your colour, you can wave it at the Germans like you did last time they invaded. They know you will give up on day one anyway, just like last time.

We're all friends now, aren't we?
To be honest, I have no fear of the Germans (or the Dutch) and have enjoyed their company when holidaying there. Very nice people.
Like anywhere else - including here - it is the politicians who cause all the trouble.

"It was a cold, bright day in April, and the clocks were striking thirteen."
In this case, the time was manipulated by an all controlling totalitarian government, like the one we've just escaped from.
