It did in a 'Union' sort of way,
but more like a 'Yankee' Union
...down here in the 'south'
The designer of the 'Koori' (one tribe) Flag,
doesn't really like the idea of it being used for 'nationalism' and upon a 'new' Flag.
...also, why replace one 'political' minority
with another minority that in true essence
isn't 'political' but more 'land' orientated in their
existence as a people.

When did the Eureka Stockade flag ever acquire the union jack?
Posted by: jalane Posted on: Yesterday at 10:46pm
talking about the flag- our Flag.....
Use the Eureka Stockade flag.... with an aboriginal symbol inplace of the Union Jack.
Which one?
I think i'd like the Horizon symbol, where the colours, and the vista in miniature , represent the sovereignty of the land.
ANSWER ......Never. NO !!! I meant, if it was thought necessary to further 'identify' the NEW flag as AUS - that symbol would be lovely. But, hey if its an issue ... in the place where the UNION JACK is NOW, which could be used as that visual additional identification - many symbols could be possible.
Thinking about it now - I think I like to see the silhouette of a "Woomera" against an ochre blank square. or like that.!
Jeez full of ideas me.!
