New british flag

An interesting topic!

While the current flag of the United Kingdom, also known as the Union Jack, has been in use since 1801, there have been various proposals and designs for a new British flag over the years. Here are a few examples:

1. The St George's Cross: In 2007, a petition was launched to replace the Union Jack with a flag featuring the St George's Cross, which is the flag of England. The design features a red cross on a white background, with a blue canton (upper corner nearest the pole) bearing the Cross of St George.
2. The Union Jack with a Saltire: In 2011, a design was proposed that incorporated the Saltire (the flag of Scotland) into the Union Jack. The design features a white saltire on a blue background, with the red cross of St George on a white background in the upper left corner.
3. The British Flag: In 2013, a design was proposed that featured a red, white, and blue tricolor, with the red stripe at the top, the white stripe in the middle, and the blue stripe at the bottom. The design was intended to be a more modern and simplified version of the Union Jack.
4. The Flag of the United Kingdom of Great Britain and Northern Ireland: In 2019, a design was proposed that featured a blue field with the Cross of St George in the upper left corner, the Saltire in the upper right corner, and the Red Hand of Ulster in the lower left corner. The design was intended to reflect the country's four constituent countries: England, Scotland, Wales, and Northern Ireland.

It's worth noting that while these designs have been proposed, there has been no official change to the Union Jack, which remains the national flag of the United Kingdom.
