Default 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.

Trolling score = 1.5/10. Must try harder.

Not being a Royal Navy warship, I have never flown a Union Jack.

Not of any real significance to most people.

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

They don't make Trolls like they used to.

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.

Ditching the blacks is a far better idea.

No, to reflect our current circumstances we should rename it to :

The Puny-un' Jack.
