@ASHAero Because people who don't live in the british isles often get confused with the union thing and the flags XD

The Irish part of the Union Flag is the red diagonal bits, the original union flag (before Ireland was integrated in the UK in 1800) didn't have those.

I am not fond of the St. George's flag. I knew a lot more flags before I knew the English flag, and I'm from England. To be honest it isn't like you see it everywhere.
I don't like it. The crusades wore it. :( And it's about St. George patron saint of England, who wasn't even from England (Patrick wasn't from Ireland either, I should point out), and his slaying of the Dragon is a metaphor for Christianity "triumphing" over Paganism. I think the revere is happening now. So yes, sucky flag.

Um. Just one question, why is the Republic of Ireland there? That flag is technically the Republic of Ireland. Northern Ireland's flag is red and white. The tricolor is sometimes flown by those who want a united Ireland, but it isn't a flag often officially used.

And if the rest of them knew how parliament worked it is often Wales, Scotland and NI that have powers to vote on English law as well as obviously National law. The vice versa can't happen.

@RoryOliver An awesome hippy!

All flags are beautiful in their own way, just like all people. Wow, I sound like a hippy.

Ireland looks like my pure Irish cousin XD

Ireland is adorable. Also, where's Wales?

The Best flag is the Irish flag!

Poor England XD

@AmadeusMop: True, but the Irish Tricolour is sometimes flown by republicans in NI to show support for independence. Which makes sense in the context of this comic - the parts of NI which would wear the Hand of Ulster probably wouldn't be complaining about England wearing the Union Jack.

Strictly speaking that green-white-and-gold flag is that of the Republic of Ireland, which is it's own sovereign nation unaffiliated with Britain, and not that of Northern Ireland, which is part of the UK and therefore would say this.

Great Britain's flag is the greatest flag on the planet! I mean, there's nothing wrong with our swedish flag... it's just... dull!

The best thing about the england flag is that it is the inverted danish flag.



12:56pm Mon 9th Apr #8285172

Our flag doesn't suck! If it sucks, so does the Danish flag because the colours are just inverted.

Ok I feel mean; both flags are awesome! But I wish we were represented by the Welsh flag...no flag is better than the Welsh.

we only really use the cross of St George (red cross on white) for football. Everything else we just use the union jack. probably because football is the only activity we take part in as JUST England. For everything else we all represent the UK together (wars, government etc)
