    Well, more than likely the baddie

    That is once they realise that Europe isn’t going to let them waltz in, NATO have said no, they’ve got no embassies, haven’t got a currency and nobody will lend to them 😀

    Whatever the name the new minimalist flag, freed from all the ridiculous fussiness of the existing union flag, will look a lot better imo.

    It’s the flag of the Scot Free British nation.

    IE the Union flag without the saltire, which presumably would be what would happen if Scotland separated itself from the rest of the UK.

    Are you suggesting that the flag of Scot Free Britain would look different ?

    You think Scotland puts the Great in Great Britain ?

    ‘Britain’ is just the name of the landmass- the island that England, Wales and Scotland sits on, how the population on that piece of map group themselves or divide themselves doesn’t matter, the piece of land is still called Britain. The ‘Great’ doesn’t mean ‘Fab’ it just means Greater as in the larger amount – the island of Britain and its associated surrounding smaller islands (but thats not to confuse it with the ‘British Isles’ which is the whole archipelago and include Ireland and all Ireland’s islands). So it would take the physical removal of those islands to take the ‘Great’ away from ‘Great Britain’

    Historically the Island of Britain was know as Greater Britain to distinguish it either from the island next door, (according to Ptelomy Ireland was ‘Little Britain’) and from Britanny, known at times as ‘Lesser Britain’

    St Patrick’s cross and St Georges cross and the welsh dragon. In red. In the Middle. And commensurably small.

    On that basis, should it not be St Georges Cross, with a Dragon on one white panel, and a Red Hand on the other 😈

    Maybe some Irish/Welsh additions would be good for this nation you call Britain.

    Well you’re talking about completely redesigning the flag, I wasn’t, I was suggesting what it would look like without the inclusion of the saltire.
