Should it be changed?
It seemed to be a massive debate a couple of years ago in the media for a little period with some strong opinions...
Now this morning I read that Ray Martin is bringing up the topic again, wanting it changed to ditch the union jack etc...
What is your opinion? Should we keep it how it is or change it? Should it incorporate some recognition of aboriginal culture etc?
Personally I love our flag how it is and wouldn't want it changed at all, I love it how it is, so for me its a case of "f*** off Ray".
Thoughts?

Ray Martin's bid to change Aussie flag
AUSTRALIA should get a new flag that ditches the Union Jack, according to TV presenter Ray Martin.
Martin said yesterday he would lead a campaign to replace the existing "colonial" flag.
"I object to having the British flag in the corner of our flag," he said.
"We have well and truly reached the point where we should have our own flag. I think we have to grow up and move on to the next stage,"
Martin's bold campaign comes as Labour Party sources confirmed the Rudd Government, if re-elected later this year, will hold a referendum on a republic.
