    O/T The Union jack (flag) whatever.

    Isn't it about time it had reference to Wales?
    Or are we not in the Union?
    Not just Scottish English Irish,

    Wales is not included on the flag because when the flag was created in 1606 it was to symbolise the union of the 3 Kingdoms of England Scotland & Ireland. Wales being a Principality and not a Kingdom meant it could not be included.

    Plus it looks stupid with a dragon on it, and a leek or a daffodil wouldn't look any better.

    This is slightly better but I don't know about the Cornish bit:
