Revision as of 13:24, 12 January 2007
Northern Ireland has had no legal flag of its own since 1972, the flag people are trying to use in this template was the flag of the Governor General a role that ceased in 1972, when the Northern Ireland House of Commons was shut down by Westminster, the flag is offensive to the Nationalist community in the north.--padraig3uk 07:50, 10 January 2007 (UTC)
