Should We Or Should We Not

New Zealand Flag Change

Prime Minister John Key has raised conversation about changing the New Zealand national flag. He wants to hold a referendum (vote) to see what New Zealanders think of this idea. We have had this flag since 1869 so for some people it's a big deal to keep it because they fought under the flag and it's close to their heart. Other people, however, think it needs a change.

Opinions:

 

It's more reflective of our history, of our world, and it shows that we’re not just babies of Queen Victoria we are our own people, an independent nation.

- Hone Harawira, MP

Do you think we should change our flag, or leave it the same?
