It is a strangely multilateral metaphor, the Union Jack.
It is one of the oldest flags in the world, formed from the constituent symbols of the United Kingdom, one of the first and arguably one of the most successful supra-national political unions in the world.

Egremont is the official blog of the Tory Reform Group. In September 2011, we were voted by Total Politics readers as the 5th best Conservative blog in Britain, the highest new entry and after only six months online.
"The TRG has contributed greatly to the Conservative Party over the last 30 years and is central to where we need to be in the future... your core beliefs in 'freedom, individual responsibility and community' matter now more than ever."
(Rt Hon. David Cameron MP, 2009)

You may do so anonymously but as renowned political theorist Kim Basinger once said, "you lose your anonymity like a helium balloon on a string." Go on, let go of the string.
