Should NZ change the flag?

LI: To make an informed choice



Today LS2 had to voteing if we change the flag or keep the current flag. We got given a piece of paper that was our voting paper if you wanted to vote for the current flag then you would tick the box underneath but if you wanted to vote for the current flag you would tick that box. I wanted to change the flag because of many reasons.

Here are some of the reason why we should change the flag:

• 27 million dollars spent shouldnt be wasted 
• New generation
• one of many flags with union jack
• too similar to Australian flag
