A Cyan Stone in Mustard Posted March 12, 2014 Share Posted March 12, 2014 The real question is what would we change it to? Saxton Hale holding an Australium bar in his palm Also, I really think it should be changed. For someone who doesn't live in Australia, it's really hard to tell Australia's flag and Oceaniac country flags apart since they all look so similar. Canada use to bear the Union Jack, but then they changed it. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Anhus™ Posted March 14, 2014 Share Posted March 14, 2014 The flag should be changed to a billabong with a kanga eating a koala. And the national anthem should be changed to Waltzing Matilda Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Anhus™ Posted March 15, 2014 Share Posted March 15, 2014 No, why change it. And why leave the British monarchy? Stupid Aussies That's rather racist calling Aussies stupid...

puddingkip Posted March 15, 2014 Share Posted March 15, 2014 That's rather racist calling Aussies stupid... There a several benefits to leaving the British monarchy, except the disadvantages outweigh the benefits. There is no way that is possibly racist. Racist, as the name makes you think, is about a human race. If I were to say all black people are inferior, that's racism. Australia is a nation filled with immigrants, thus not forming a single race. It therefore is impossible to make a racist statement against Australians, unless I was to be talking about the aboriginals. My post could be seen as discriminating, but everybody needs to stop calling racism all the time when that isn't the case. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

FayBee Posted March 15, 2014 Share Posted March 15, 2014 Canada pledges allegiance to the monarch like Australia but doesn't have a Union Jack. So I don't see the harm of removing the Union Jack. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

puddingkip Posted March 15, 2014 Share Posted March 15, 2014 I for one welcome our new Germanic overlords. British masters were: Germans (saxons), French (plantagenets), Welsh (tudor), Scots (Stuart), German (hanover) and German (Saxe-Coburg). The kings of England sure were very English Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
