Empire (10) – Flags and Names
Too many flags and labels are too compicated for Stevie.
So let’s make it easy.
We have the United Kingdom of Great Britain and Northern Ireland. The flaf is the Union Flag, which includes the crosses of St.’s George, Andrew and Patrick. A design icon, if you will.
We understand this, just as we understand what we mean when we talk about England, Scotland, Northern Ireland, The Republic of Ireland (Eire) and Ireland. And Wales. All different places, all differentiated but all understood.
As for claiming that Wales (Northern) Ireland and Scotland are England’s Bitches I suggest you come over here and make that claim in Swansea, Glasgow, Aberdeen, Dublin or Antrim.
Then you’ll understand how things are ….
