Why we should keep the current flag!
I want to tell you why John Key should change his mind and go back to the current flag. I have three persuasive reasons why we should keep our flag and they are…the soldiers went to war with the flag , the treaty of Waitangi will be broken and lastly John Key is wasting a lot of money. Australia is going to change their flag anyway. If we change the flag it will break our history.
Firstly, the soldiers took our flag to war because they wanted to represent our country and flag, and they fought for New Zealand. The current flag is shown up at all RSA’s to show that the flag went to war and the soldiers still believe in our flag. If we change the flag all the books and photos of the current flag with be taken down and there will probably be no pictures because they are all based on our CURRENT FLAG!
Secondly, the treaty of Waitangi will be broken to bits and ripped up. The people that signed the flag will be heartbroken and we will have to get them back again and sign the treaty. But the people that signed it might of passed away and there will be no Waitangi Day or treaty of Waitangi to look at again. The Bay of Island will be very empty and there will be no point to go there. That's why we should keep our CURRENT FLAG!
Lastly, John Key the prime minister is wasting loads of money and he could be spending it on better things like charities, education or hospitals and medicine to keep people alive if they have diseases or anything bad. One question, does John Key want to be known for something? Does he want to be known for something that will make him famous? People have melanoma and they need help really FAST. I think John Key is really silly to change the flag.
John Key is making a wrong decision but that is my opinion. He has been on TV and everything but it's too late to stop him anyway. I really hope nearly everyone wants to keep the current flag NOT the new one. I hope to see John Key and tell him my thoughts and this story. Those are my reasons why we have to keep the CURRENT FLAG!! Thank you for reading my persuasion. GO CURRENT FLAG!!!
