Were I a kiwi voting I'd vote to keep the old flag.

There's going to be shitposting either way. New Zealand sealed its own fate when they announced this referendum.

we didn't decide to do this, the PM did
>>56810578
But you elected him. He represents the will of his people.
of course they should change the fucking flag
>>56810578
He ran with it in the last election and got elected so he did have the mandate. They did fuck up the process though.
>>56810620
pls come 2 brazil
>>56810105
Probably not. All the recent polls have been saying it won't.
The whole process was a shitshow anyway...
>no designers on the selection panel
>3 of the 4 designs were just variations of the same fern design
>Rather than using an iterative process, they just held a national colouring-in contest and expected something good to come out of it
Probably the best breakdown of the whole thing - http://thespinoff.co.nz/03-03-2016/a-designers-last-lament-for-this-whole-sorry-flag-fiasco/
Yeah nah, at the end of the day i'd rather have the old one for another 10 years or so, then another shot at changing it with a process that actually works.
GLOBALISTS WILL NEVER EVER CHANGE OUR FLAG
GOD SAVE THE QUEEN, GOD DEFEND NEW ZEALAND AND GOD SMITE FOREIGN SCUM
you really shouldn't have a cuckstamp in your flag unless you're a lost poor island in the middle of the pacific
If I was chinkmoot, I would change the flags in 4chan for a couple of hours regardless of the results just to fuck with people.

Wow. If that alternative flag didn't look like total shit it would definitely have won
Why do people act as if taking the Union Jack of your flag is some sort of declaration of a Republic and a direct insult to the Queen? Lizzie don't give a fuck.
And this is coming from a devout Monarchist. Canada did it right. We have our own unique flag, but the Union Jack is still holds Offical status as our Royal Flag
>>56811384
This was elderly and young New Zealanders vs baby boomer cuckolds and johnny foreigner
Thank fuck we won, there is hope for this country after all
>>56811412
Yeah. Then again we saw how "creative" New Zealanders are when they were designing the alternative.
>>56811427
>young New Zealanders prefer a cuckstamp
To be expected
cuck
>>56811213
Piss off Xiao Ren Peng. We were founded by Britain and most of us are ethnically British.
It would only make sense to change the flag if we became a republic anyways.
>>56811427
fuck I hate baby boomers
we need to gas them all
>>56811412
Probably, most people would have wanted 5 or so options to choose from in the final vote but it'd have diluted the votes so it'd have been even more likely to keep the current one

Why? Australia and New Zealand are sovereign nations. They are not British colonies.
You can't truly be an indepedent nation if you have a giant cuckstamp on your flag and listen to a 97 year old woman's memes.

There is also nothing wrong with having the Union Jack -- a symbol of our history and heritage -- on our flag.

Hmm...
God dammit, why did you retards pick the black one of Kyle's shitty flag? At least the other one had a decent color scheme. It's not perfect. but it's slightly better than the old one. But instead, you retards pick black over red? Why? Why would anyone think black looks better than fucking red. Tbh if you guys would have picked red over black I think it might've won.
>>56812452
The vote used STV
That flag got the highest amount of votes but the black one got the most second choice votes
>>56812419
You're all EU thralls anyway so why does it matter?

Retard detected. We take the parts we want from the EU, and we reject the rest. If we were thralls we'd have no choice in the matter. Indeed we wouldnt have the option of leaving - but we do.
>>56811342
The british flag on a country that isn't even british..

>>56811465
Baby boomers are the wones voting to keep the shitty flag.
You may aswell have the british flag tattood on your arse with "Britains bitch" written next to it.

>>56812580
Yeah, but does this look better than that? Fuck no. Black doesn't look good with blue, red, and white. It looks awful.
>>56812545
Just because they represent something still doesn't mean it's okay. "Look, brown is okay on this red, white, and black flag because it represents the natives!" It still looks like shit, and they could have been more creative in representing natives or something by just shitting up a decent flag.

Why do people care about flags so much? Can someone explain?
