The "Union Jack" or "Union Flag" is a composite design made up of three different national symbols:
The flag of England, St. George's Cross, (red cross on a white background)
The flag of Scotland St. Andrew's Cross (White diagonal cross on blue background)
And
The flag of Ireland St. Patrick's Cross, (red diagonal cross on a white background)
Thus:-
We're proud of our heritage and the Red, White and Blue
should have been, the red and white.
