The New Union Flag... In Bizarro World!



So... Jim reminded me yesterday over a few beers that there is a cross of St David, and given yesterdays idea to redesign the Union flag I gave it a go (more to see what it would look like than anything else!). Others have already had a try (see here). Number 4 is similar but come on, the black has to be in there if we are to keep in with the previous precedents.

Oh the joys of having free time on my hands...

  1. Jay is there talk of a redesign?
    I know the Scots are threatening to leave the UK in ten ,,is that the reason?

    It would be a shame the Union Jack is one of the Best & most distinctive flags in the world.

  2. The talk of redesign is to finally include the Welsh in the flag, as we kind of ignored them when the original Union Flag was created... oops... Hence the new yellow and black cross to represent the flag of St David.

    The proposal for the Scots to leave the Union in ten years is just another one of the Scottish National Party's dates. They always set dates for independence and then nothing happens. However this time it is certainly their best chance as they now run the Scottish Parliament. If they did leave the Union then I do not believe the Union would continue and the country of my birth would cease to exist.

    That is not something I'd be too happy with... :(

  3. Thanks Jae yes I understand your feeling there about Scotland,,greater Autonomy surely BUT Scotland gains more being apart of the UK.

    Hopefully it will turn out like Quebec they threaten to leave Canada and it is all for naught,,

    Now if we Yanks can just convince Texas to secede America will be a happy place ;-)
