Gareth Hughes on the flag



Gareth Hughes ‏@GarethMP

A new flag would be cool. An end to mass spying & new foreign policy that does good for global poverty, the climate & peace would be better

Perhaps split the flag into four quadrants: one quadrant each for the Warner Bros logo, Shell logo, Goldman Sachs, & Anadarko logo

Gold on gold.

There's nothing cool about a new flag. A new fridge/freezer would be cool. So too an ice age. A new flag would be different colour patterns on a piece of cloth. Given the overwhelming ambivalence I feel for the current combination the idea that changing to a new colour combination could improve anything at all is not credible. It's almost like there's another agenda.
Does it strike you as bizarre that we would let someone who has just demonstrated that his ambition, as he is near his pinnacle, is to be a Flag designer, also lead the country? Why can't we have someone who has more relevant ambitions, maybe something like "I'd like to ensure the countryr is well run".
Meanwhile I'd like a new fridge. That would be cool. And a new vacuum cleaner - that would suck.

Or a pair of Doc Martens.

They'd kick arse!

I received a pair of black Doc Martens boots for my birthday. They do kick arse, though in my case only figuratively.

Hard core.
My Pitbulls have served me well and will continue to do so til they fall apart :-)

Flags are very nationalistic. I'm not into gangs and I don't think flags are that different to gang patches.
Great distraction from important issues though.
