He's obviously in distress because he ran aground.
A little ironic that you object to flying one union flag upside down but want to leave the union......Here we are at Almerimar parking aire and we are having great banter with Pedro because he is flying the Jack upside down and he says he will change it if we decide to stay in the EU. No chance
Otherwise a good stopping place.

The Cote D'ivory (Ivory Coast) flagI recall several years ago hearing Ian Paisley declaring that no one had the right to fly the flag of his country upside down . At the time I thought he was probably the only person that had noticed it on some building in Belfast.
Anyone know why the Union Flag does not have symmetry?
Dick
The reason that the UK flag is not symmetrical is because of the relative positions of the saltires of St Patrick and St Andrew. The red saltire of St Patrick is offset such that it doesn't relegate the white saltire of St Andrew to a mere border. St Andrew's saltire has the higher position at the hoist side with St Patrick's saltire in the higher position on the opposite side.

Not a sea farer but as far as i know......its not just British registered vessels, ALL ships/boats MUST fly the flag of their country of registration uppermost on the mast.Thank you Mike you beat me to it, one thing though I think it is any British registered vessel not just Warships. Correct me if I'm wrong.
Any other flags can be flown below it

It was suggested that the Welsh dragon be incorporated on the Union Flag as shown below.

but some thought it should be this.

Which one? You decide!
No. Just no.
The union flag is made up of the individual flags of the countries of the union.
Wales isn't a country and isn't technically part of the union so it's flag doesn't need to be included.
