Worth mentioning that the EU has credibility gap problems and this ain't gonna help?

Ah well, one typo won't kill me... it's already too long for them to print, I'm sure.

Don't worry, sooner or later some official will notice what other organisations use rainbow themes in their flags, and the whole idea will die the obscure death it deserves ;-)

I posted a comment to news.bbc.co.uk about this. I think it went along the lines of "Normally I am very pro-Europe, however if this beastly rag is adopted I fear I shall have to vote Tory to get it removed. It is utterly ghastly. The purpose of a flag is to be recognisible from a distance as this "design" fails in this regard I suggest it be scraped". It was something like that anyway.
Personally if they are desparate for a new flag then they can have this design of mine. A golden Minoan bull on a blue background. The bull represents the form of Zeus who carried of Europa. Europa, of course, lending her name to our continent. The blue and gold would connect to the old flag.
