Call for Welsh Dragon on Union Flag.

In a Commons debate, Wrexham's Labour MP Ian Lucas said the Welsh Dragon should be added to the Union Jacks Red, White and Blue pattern.

The Union Jack currently only represents the other three UK nations and the Welsh people have asked for it to be added. The Welsh Assembly have said the Union Flag should not be flown in Wales as the Welsh are not on it.

In response the Reply came that the Plan would be very Unpopular with the citizens of the UK and was an entirely "Eccentric" idea.

The Scottish response was positive but told the Debate it will be Irrelevant as with their full Independence soon or otherwise they will be coming off the Union Flag.

Could I ask would people find it unpopular to have one of the Countries of the UK represented on the Union Flag?
