Purpose of the shredded flags hanging half mast in London? (sh.itjust.works)

Visiting London for a few days, and noticed a lot of half-mast flags: red cross on a white background (reminiscent of some crusaders, Templars?) any symbolism behind them being shredded? Its a lot of them, must have cost a ton of money…

They’ve been at half-mast ever since Mr Bean drove the princess of our hearts into a wall in that Paris underpass. NEVER FORGET.
