    Yep i like it. It represents my country and I'm proud of it.

    Also, the official saltire is actually a lighter blue than the one used in the union flag, so * them :giggle1:

    I've never had any strong opinion of it but it's way nicer than England's dull, plain and boring thing. England has the union's crappiest flag. I love how our's is the predominant flag in the union jack.

    Even though it's part of the Union flag? :56: I can't stand money cause it has the queens head on it :nonono:

    I never really thought about it but the saltire is alright, it's a simple and unique design. When it's not part of the Union flag of course :50:

    I used to always like it, and think it was the 'main' part of the UF, but now my politics have changed and im blatantly anti religion, i view it differently. Its still a nice flag as such, and i like seeing it when Scottish sportspeople are doing well, but other than that, it doesnt mean much to me.

    Not overly attached to the flag but it's a decent design. Dislike the anthem more.

    Looks like a Scottish Embassy. You walk in there you're in Scotland.

    Or else Banksy is Scottish.
