And while we're at it how about a new flag - now that 'crosses' and a 'United' 'Kingdom' are increasingly irrelevant. Wales has its dragon, Canada it's maple leaf, Japan its sun, Korea its Yin-Yang symbol.
The oak is a strong symbol of England with all the best connotations and none of the worst (I did consider the rose but that has a prickly side to it and could lead to another war :-)
Suggest therefore that the new English flag should be a green oak tree on a single colour background.
