Hello everybody and welcome back to my blog. This week my topic is about the flag debate - in New Zealand at the moment there is a flag debate about changing the flag. Above are my favourite 4 flag options and I am going to be talking about which one I like best and about changing the flag.

My favourite flag 

Out of the four flags I have chosen at the top I have narrowed it down to one flag. The flag that I have chosen as my favourite is the one at the bottom left. The reason I like it is because it has the fern which represents our sporting nature, the  4 stars which represents the southern cross which we see every night and I believe the colours represent our Māori culture. The main reason I like this flag is because it represents our country in a few different ways and has a fantastic design.

Do I want to change the flag ?

Yes I do want to change the flag. I believe it would make our country more recognisable on the world map and we wouldn't get mixed up with the Australian flag which often happens now. It might cost $37M but the government spends a huge amount of money per year on our country's services so it would actually be money well spent. Overall, changing the flag would be a huge success for our nation.

That's it for this week I hope you enjoyed my post. Please comment below and say whether you want to keep the flag or not.
