Not necessarily look at the Hawaiian flag and that aint no British colony still!

Not a valid comparison that you all fall in to. The Hawaiian flag is a state flag not a country flag. The Hawaii country flag is the Stars and Strips. Up until the early part of this century the Georgian state flag was the old Confederate flag.

1412625 2015-12-13 08:58:00 It seems that that all the labour / green voters wanted a vote between the current flag and some unknown flag. Now its between the current one and a known alternative. I know its a bit hard for some to think about, but give it a try. wotz (335)
1412626 2015-12-13 18:10:00 Have got no real problem with the flag chosen to go up against our current Flag but when seen against other World Flags our current one still stands out but is confused with the Aussie one by some

I would go with no change

Red Peak would not look out of place when compared to most African Countries if NZ was in Africa

Yes but can't those "some" people count?

Looking at that website you linked to, it is amazing how some countries flag are nearly identical.

(Monaco and Indonesia for example)

1412630 2015-12-13 20:10:00 I wonder if the flag commissions advertising compaign will be as aggressive for the upcoming existing flag/ new option as it was for the last voting round. i.e Billboards, TV adverting, newspaper & magazine ads etc.
My bet it won't be - possibly with the excuse ' we ran out of money'! ... well planned Key

1412631 2015-12-13 21:03:00 The one that won is what I voted for so that's cool, not sure I actually want it changed though and do consider it all a waste of money.
I don't think there is any possible justification for doing it in two stages even if you are happy with the Idea in the first place.
