I'd like to see a Brit-Cit Jubilee story, bringing together all the characters we've seen based in Brit-Cit (including the excellent Strange & Darke!) that delves into the Brit-Cit Royal family, shedding some light on their function and life during Dredd's reality. Could be pretty topical too!  :D

Anyone else sick of the likes of Sainsbury's who have created a range of Union Flag merchendise that is totally wrong. Last week I spent a whole shopping trip pissing off the wife by shouting WRONG every time I came across the buntings etc displayed around the store and having a little rant near suited staff.
No, just me then.
No wonder the UK is losing its identity.
WRONG

Thankfully, here in Northern Ireland, we've been spared most of this nonsense. It's one of the few times our bullshit and cultural over-sensitivity has worked in our favour.

When I see something like that, all I can think of is the twelfth of July and riots
You may quote me on that.

Ironic really as its normally the NI part of the Flag that companies like Sainsbury's fuck up.

As a conquered nation it seems the welsh aren't entitled to be included in the UNION FLAG.

It's not splitting hairs, it's called being correct  ;)

Actually..not really..it was a Union 'Jack' at sea way before it became the National flag of the UK

In fact a century passes before it becomes a 'flag'

But let's not split hairs again  ;)

I think that you may have noticed that all the FLAGS that vzzbux saw were on land and in a shop, hence they are not Union Jacks (I didn't see any on any ships in his picture).

An education for all the British who are lacking in their knowledge of our National Flag.

1606 Union Jack created

1707 becomes the Countries National Flag

I'd say I was bang on

At least it answered the question about the Welsh aspect
