what do you think of when you see the Union Jack? Or is it actually an offensive symbol? And if the latter one is true then Why is the Union Jack so Offensive? Maybe the first thing that comes to your mind after seeing it is the existence of the far-right, racism, colonialism, and an old, always invading monarchy.

    Assuming that you are asking a question, then no, the British flag isn't offensive. Anyone that think it is must be well balanced by having a chip on both shoulders. Further, if that flag is considered offensive, then so must every other Nations flags be. Take the plank out of your own eye so that you can more easily remove the splinter from someone elses perhaps.

    This whole video is false and made just to shit on the British. The Africans and the Portuguese started the slave trade. If Africans weren’t selling there own people by force to the Arabians and later the Portuguese then it wouldn’t have happened. The English flag is used by the far right not the union flag. Idiots. The national front was defeated by Farage. Farage ended it as he believed it was genuinely racist by becoming a force in ukip. Idiots

    its not the jack as its not on a ship, its generally shocks me how so many people don't know this, a jack is hung on a jackstaff which is on a ship... also we didn't start the slave trade? the portugease did... and how can the flag be "offensive" if its associated to the empire, how is that different to any other country? France, spain, portugal, germany, russia, italy and even the US? its not really fair to say an entire person's culture is offensive and wrong, if you say that to us then how is that different to someone who bars you from your culture in a place like africa?

      That's a common misconception. Whilst it does have naval origins, the name 'Union Jack' predates the term jackstaff by 150 years and since 1908, can be used to officially refer to the national flag.

      such a country will never ever exist, if by some catastrophe the monarchy was the end, there is absolutely no way that the union can survive. republicans in Scotland and Wales will never tolerate union with England, it is monarchists who favour keeping the realm together. Don't believe me, just look at Northern Ireland, Ulster loyalists are also inevitably staunch royalists, whereas republicans in Northern Ireland want to united with Eirie, there is no republican faction in Northern Ireland that also wants to be part of a hypothetical British republic. There are only two options, its either one United Kingdom or the country splits into several republics

      @@truetory6231 While the monarchy has historically played a key role in maintaining unity within the UK, isn’t it possible that a more modern form of governance-such as a democratic federal system-could maintain the integrity of the union? With shifting attitudes in Scotland, Wales, and Northern Ireland, could decentralization and stronger regional autonomy be a better solution than relying on the monarchy to keep the union intact?

      @@RiddleCrown democratic federal system? If I recall correctly, the British created federal democratic systems in Canada and Australia without turning them into republics and both have turned out to be very successful. It is possible that it can turn itself into a federation as well but that does not require replacing the King with some "president" But that said however I still stand by my original point, republicans in Scotland and Wales don't want to remain in the union at all. Offering to transform the union into a federation would actually appeal more to monarchists since it is they who have a vested interest in keeping Britain together, republicans on the other hand don't want to stay and dangling federalism in front of them will only embolden thier ambitions for dissolution.
