So it has been suggested that New Zealand needs a new flag. The NZ government is currently taking submissions for flag designs, so if you'd like to make your mark in New Zealand history, now is your chance. Submit your designs! It's a bit of a debate and the topic of many jokes at the moment as to whether it's worth all the money being spent on this re-design. They've been holding meetings that aren't very well attended, but apparently all the engagement and support is coming in online. There are over 7,000 submissions for a new design so far. Many are variations on the silver fern, kiwi bird, and korus in red, white and blue. A few incorporate rugby, and then there are those that have a unique take on what it means to be a kiwi, for example displaying the kiwi fruit instead of the kiwi bird. Here are just a few that I found funny, unique, or interesting. Have a browse yourself and see if there's anything you like better than the current New Zealand flag design. If you click on the title of the design it should take you to the submissions website where you can read the reasoning behind the submission from the designer.
