Time to ditch the Union Jack?
 
Britain is now a multi-cultural society and flying the Union Jack
is basically saying "your excluded" to many ethnic groups.

Isn't it time in this day and age, in the 21st century, to ditch
this piece of racist gabage?

You're aware of the difference between the Union Jack and the Union flag?
I'm sure someone will point it out.

I've already done that, if I fly a flag at all it's a St. George cross
or a Yorkshire flag.

Flying the Union Jack or indeed the Union Flag is basically saying either "I
support Nick Griffin", "I support Ian Paisley", or "I'm Gordon Brown".
Everyone else flies the Scottish, English or Welsh flags, or the Irish
tricolour.

Yes? But this is true of all national flags since many/most countries
are multi-cultural. I don't see much in the way of requests to stop
flying the Stars and Stripes in the USA, for example and the people
there are comprised of as many originating nationalities and creeds and
religions as you could imagine - they don't feel excluded, it's their
flag, whatever their family origins. This is our flag. So what you are
suggesting is that flags in general should be scrapped. I cannot see
why the union flag is any different - oh yes, *some* Scots and others
may not like being a part of this particular union but that is a whole
different question.

Round here the flag of choice for Nick Griffin supporters is the
English flag. Don't think I've ever seen a Union Flag being flown in
that context.

Union Jack, union flag are exactly the same thing and any official
government organisation will tell you the same. People who try to
pretend they are clever by making a difference do the exact opposite,
they show themselves to be Colonel Buffy Buftons (ret'd) who have lost
touch with the real world but still think their 19th century education
means they know everything.

In the USA people tend to fly many flags. One might be the stars and
stripes, another might be the country of origin, yet another the state
flag and others for baseball and football team you support

I like that, everyone had different allegences depending on
circumstances. Union Flag for the olympics, English/Scotish for the
football/rugby, England/Pakistani for the cricket

Mix and match and feel free to do so.

Blue background with the white Yorkshire Rose in the centre, the
stylised one not the true one as on the Yorkshire County Cricket Club
flag.

I've also seen one suggested as an offset St. George cross, like the
Scandinavian ones, with the rose at the centre of the cross, I quit like
the idea.
