Reform the UK flag!

iosaf the ipsiphi | 17.03.2006 11:36 | Culture | World

On the occasion of the day of Patrick, patron saint of Ireland, an island country (about the size of Virginia) located to the west of the principality of Cymru & the Kingdoms of Scotland & Engurland, The permanent assembly (auto-appointed) @rtists & activists & inteleKtools demand-
(as is customary)

remove this flag from the UK flag please.
remove this flag from the UK flag please.


"The removal of the Patrick's cross from the flag of the United Kingdom".

As you might not have noticed, the flag of the United Kingdom where many United Kollectivers live and work and collect grubs and stuff, is a juxtaposition of three crosses.

1 for Saint Andrew and bonnie Scotland the realm of the Stuarts.
(we'll go into that another day)
1 for Saint George, a.k.a. Jordi who killed the dragon patron saint of Catalonia. (where we the permanent collective assembly (self appointed) of @rtists & activists & inteleKtools live)
1 for Saint Patrick who expelled the snakes and liars.

The British Union and Constitution has undergone upheaval and reform at eight pivotal points in its history.

The Irish people have played a key role in all of them.
And many of the key decisions were made on Irish soil.

The establishment thus, by the Irish people of the present
geographic limits of the UK is based on the 1922 settlement which afforded the majority calvinist religious community of "ulster scots" speakers (a type of pre-Irving Welsh) to stay in the UK of GB and NI as your collection of states is formally known, (check your passport).

The flag of the NI statelet is that of George with the "red hand" in the centre.

Thus to be all hogworty and quiditch on you,
You have had no right to the Patricks cross on your flag
since 1922.

Other things you mightn't know about the only foreign country with which you share a frontier-

Ireland is traditional divided into “regions”

These include the Gaeltacht where people speak Gaeilge a modernised form
Of Goidelic.
Ulster which is divided into two parts “the free bit” and the “the god’s own bit”
where the people either speak “ulsterscots” an ancient form of Irving Welsh or HibernoEnglish an eastern dialect of American.
Leinster, Connaught, where people farm eggs, launder money and build roads are not worthy of serious comment.
Dublin, and some parts of north Lahndin make up the other more populous regions.

Ireland is very important for several reasons-

it occupies positions in the the top ten economic, educational, and human development indicators on the planet, the UK occupies between the thirteen and thirty.

It breeds American presidents.

It is in dispute with the British ( a war like people ) Iceland, (they look like björk) and Denmark, (their royal couple is more popular than Charles and Camila) the Faroe Islands continental shelf boundary.

Ireland signed the Good Friday agreement with Tony Blair in 1998 by which it was agreed to crucify a troublesome radical man known as Christ.

Ireland is test marketing zone for the British market, so they get to taste limited edition nestlé products before you do.

Ireland invented received pronunciation “RP” or “posh-speak” as its known by infiltrating the 1930s BBC pronunciation comitee with no less than five of its nationals.

Ireland has been a member of the indymedia community since the beginning, and it was an irishman who suggested calling the UK “united kollectives”.

The Irish are responsible for the United Kingdom’s constitution which is based on the 1922 settelment between the Irish Free State and the UK of GB and NI and by hosting the William of Orange versus James gig/war.

The Irish were responsible for your good governance in the XIX century.

The Irish invented both the words "tory" and "boycott".

The Irish were responsible for you winning the war against Napoleon.

The Irish helped you win the First World War.

The Irish helped you win the Second World War.
(OK last year a uk imc'ista pointed out that we didn't really help you win the Second World War, possibly true, but we dind't try and get you to lose it either. So less chat about the U boats getting refueled by a state which had no fule reserves)

The Irish are more €uropean than you are.

The Irish don’t produce plutonium – you do.

The Irish are liked by everyone. – no-one likes you.

The Irish are stronger, fairer, more fleet of foot, mend better rhymes,& saddle horses better than you do.

The Irish have less cars than you do.

The Irish get better hollywood movie roles.

U2, Bob Geldof, James Bond, Terry Wogan, Mother Teresa and Brad Pitt, Ghandi, Pol Pot, Anne Bolyne, Diana Spencer, Bodecia, Anne Bronte and Dr Paisley are all / were all Irish.

The Irish are very good at playing Quiditch.

The Irish are on “your side”

If you need any help with emerging democracy issues,
counter-terrorism, freedom of information, tax cuts,
migration policies, pouring a decent pint, the proper orthography of whiskey or ditching Blair
(any Blair, Blair the Blair, Cherie Blair, Leo Blair, Ewan Blair, the unknown shy Blair, Blair the Cop, Blair the Orwell, Blair the Media producer)

don't hesitate to ask us.

Gurb Mile maith agaibh!

Thank ye very much!

& good luck with your war. Which we didn't help you start 3 years ago yesterday.

& you could be very onside and wear a black shamrock for peace today C/F  http://www.blackshamrock.org/
Or you could fight the USA and free our Irish migrants (like they are a priority????)

An Irish suggestion for the Union Jack !
An Irish suggestion for the Union Jack !

A Scots/Welsh/Ulster suggestion for the Union Jack
A Scots/Welsh/Ulster suggestion for the Union Jack

There is no such thing as a British empire, there never was. The English Empire started with the conquest of Wales, then Scotland, then Ireland. but the English Empire was staffed and stocked by it's foriegn dominions. Jengis Khans armies later comprised more of his victim-tribes rather than his own clan. Assimilation. Welsh, Scots and Irish fell to the English sword, purse and tongue and then were paid in their turn to wield the English sword abroad, commotting atoricities in places like Iraq and Afghanistan and China as soon as they could be shipped there. Part of Ireland later freed itself from direct political influence only to sell itself to a newer, richer, more pious and bloody Empire. And they got a good price noone can deny, better price than scotland or Wales got for our freedom, but only sligghtly so. For 80 years at least there has been an equal percentage of free folk in Scotland as there is in Wales or Ireland. And for that matter even England has birthed infants who chose freedom over subjectation. Now we are all bum-boys, bouncers and mercenaries for the Americans, it gets harder to hate even the English. Once we were bought and sold for English gold, now even the English are working for the Yankee dollar.

Notice although scots and Irish can fight, neither of us pick on the welsh, because although they put up a great fight, they were closest and fell first. You call Ulster-Scots settlers but every original Scot in Scotland is an Irish settler in the first place so what is the difference ?

See, you in Ireland have a state and parliament that might seem to have half a claim to rule over you, Europe to rule over you, international law to restrict your actions. Free people in Scotland and Wales and Ulster, we have no legitimate state or parliament over us, only a false foriegn oppressive law to compete with our common-sense.
In many ways we are more truly free than you seemingly independent countries. I know at this moment in time our non-english english-speaking home nations are more likely to be able to foster anarchism - freedom from all subjectation - than most higher gdp countries could aspire to. If we produce or possess profit foriegn business interests will exploit us. Like the Irishman implied though, the US power structures are so hegemoneously filled with our direct cousins that they would never attack us. We are among the few nations that would be permitted to free ourselves from the US without risking incurring gunships and cluster-bombs. We could develop true democracy here and noone would stop us. I suggest we revert to the Clan system today, 200 people or less making decisions for themselves the way they see fit.

I'll think I'll have to intervene Black Flag for you know not what they have drunk - and I do. Let me step in here since I've had a glass of good Scots porter tonight ( a Welsh drink admittedly but one I've grown a taste for ).

>Ireland is traditional divided into “regions”
Tradition is your parents ignorance. Division is weakness. Borders are for rulers and sheep.

>These include the Gaeltacht where people speak Gaeilge a modernised form
Of Goidelic.

A tiny minority of Irish speak their own language, unlike the Welsh - a 'British' country by most accounts.

>Ulster which is divided into two parts “the free bit” and the “the god’s own bit”
where the people either speak “ulsterscots” an ancient form of Irving Welsh or HibernoEnglish an eastern dialect of American. Leinster, Connaught, where people farm eggs, launder money and build roads are not worthy of serious comment.

No, they are undoubtedly just thick country shits unlike your master race in Dublin who are undoubtedly worth comment. I'm commenting.

>Dublin, and some parts of north Lahndin make up the other more populous regions.

See, you can't just insult the English, or the British, you have to insult the people just down the road from you. See those fuckers in the next street - they deserve a kicking surely don't they know ? Those fuckers shouldn't be walking down your street and expecting to get away with it.

>Ireland is very important for several reasons- it occupies positions in the the top ten economic, educational, and human development indicators on the planet, the UK occupies between the thirteen and thirty.

You mean between dirteen and dirty ? Ah, you are better than the British eh ? Why would that be ? The gift of the gab ?

>It breeds American presidents.
And American Presidents have killed more innocents than even Hitler and Stalin over the past 100 years. So that's a good reason to nuke Ireland some more. Viva Sellafield !

>It is in dispute with the British ( a war like people )

Unlike the Oirish, ( a victim like people)

>Iceland, (they look like björk)

Better looking than Shane McGowan my man !

>and Denmark, (their royal couple is more popular than Charles and Camila) the Faroe Islands continental shelf boundary.

So the Oirish are pretty troublesome too eh ? Even the Scots don't trouble the Faroes though undoubtedly the Danish deserve a kicking...you folk shouldn't allow your diplomacy to be conducted drunk, it never helped in the past. Although you brew a fine beer, you drink like children.

>Ireland signed the Good Friday agreement with Tony Blair in 1998 by which it was agreed to crucify a troublesome radical man known as Christ.

And Black Flag called this Nationalist ? Christ was an Irish terrorist then ( I always wondered about Gerry Adams beard )

>Ireland is test marketing zone for the British market, so they get to taste limited edition nestlé products before you do.

Yeah, and New Zealand get it two months before you. Test markets are tiny, unimportant markets.

>Ireland invented received pronunciation “RP” or “posh-speak” as its known by infiltrating the 1930s BBC pronunciation comitee with no less than five of its nationals.

Every country has 'proper-speech' darling - in the Nederlands it's known as 'ABN'.

>Ireland has been a member of the indymedia community since the beginning, and it was an irishman who suggested calling the UK “united kollectives”.

Was he drunk or just racist through and through ?

>The Irish are responsible for the United Kingdom’s constitution which is based on the 1922 settelment between the Irish Free State and the UK of GB and NI and by hosting the William of Orange versus James gig/war.

And the Oirish were the first to colonise Mars...dream on young man.

>The Irish were responsible for your good governance in the XIX century.

And therefore directly responsible for your good-governance during the same period ? Hahaha

>The Irish invented both the words "tory" and "boycott".

And 'quiz' - that's the important one.

>The Irish were responsible for you winning the war against Napoleon.

Hhahahaa. Nae Irish fought for Napoleon then...I always thought Bluscher was Prussian, didn't know Prussia was a suburb of Dublin.

>The Irish helped you win the First World War.

By occupying a Dublin post-office ?

>The Irish helped you win the Second World War.

By collaborating with the Nazis despite a declaration of neutrality - oh, even you should be ashamed of this claim.

>(OK last year a uk imc'ista pointed out that we didn't really help you win the Second World War, possibly true, but we dind't try and get you to lose it either. So less chat about the U boats getting refueled by a state which had no fule reserves)

We had plenty of fool reserves - which part of Dublin are you from again ?

>The Irish are more €uropean than you are.

The Irish have certainly enriched themselves from European funds without equal in Europe, Europe has always tried to help it's most backwards regions - which is all you are now, a European region. The most poverty stricken European nations always suck up to the US more.

>The Irish don’t produce plutonium – you do.
Sure we do, but we just dump our waste in the oirish sea because we know you can't do anything about it except complain and grow cancer - and you are proud of this ?

>The Irish are liked by everyone. – no-one likes you.

You shouldn't mistake pity for love.

>The Irish are stronger, fairer, more fleet of foot, mend better rhymes,& saddle horses better than you do.

Well, of course you are better with horses, you are still living in the 18th century. I'm sure you will make good mechanics too once you become industrialised.

>The Irish have less cars than you do.

Ah, but you have more horses so don't apologise now.

>The Irish get better hollywood movie roles.

Yes, you are rewarded in film-roles for your suck-up mentalitity to the US nazis.

>U2, Bob Geldof, James Bond, Terry Wogan, Mother Teresa and Brad Pitt, Ghandi, Pol Pot, Anne Bolyne, Diana Spencer, Bodecia, Anne Bronte and Dr Paisley are all / were all Irish.

No, only the shitty losers amongst that list were.



Fuck ye, you have half of all literature behind you and you still embarrass yourself with drunken ramblings. I stayed in Athlone for two months, hated it, saw the anti-traveller/anti-immigrant graffitti and fire-bombs and I could still argue a better case for Eire than you could. To be sure.

See, the IRA freed you from the subjectation of the British state. It's down to you to free yourself from the Irish state, and that is perhaps more difficult simply because it comparitively benign. Being neutral and a victim of colonisation, genocide and ethnic cleansing rather than a former coloniser means it has done a lot of good internationally in the past, certainly compared to Britain, but it still a state and at the end of the day the taoiseach or garda or whoever has no real right to tell you what to do.
Right wing americans often take up Irish or Scots causes simply to avoid black people, you should be wary of having too much influence in the US. I'd much rather have an Irish passport than a British one, but it appalls me I have to have a passport to travel anywhere or that folk would judge me by where I happen to be born.

St Paddy flag in the Union Flag

13.08.2006 20:36

Rather than change the Union Flag, why not get rid of the sectarian so-called 'Ulster Banner' it was the flag of a Protestant government for a Protestant people. Northern Ireland needs to move on (but not out of the Union, I'm still a Unionist at heart). St Patrick's flag represents Northern Ireland in the Union and should be used by the people of Northern Ireland, like the Scots and English use their nations flags.
