@ Tawke, fook me, I never knew there was a difference.

Are they the 3D ones that look proper through Red/Blue 3D glasses?

You will find that is the Kingdom of Great Britain flag

The Flag of the Kingdom of Great Britain was the royal banner known as the King's Colours. The design dated from the early 17th century, when it was ordered by King James I and VI to be used on ships on the high seas, and it subsequently came into use as a national flag with the union of England and Scotland in 1707.

The flag consists of the red cross of Saint George, patron saint of England, superimposed on the Saltire of Saint Andrew, patron saint of Scotland. Its correct proportions are 1:2.

The flag's official use came to an end in 1801 with the creation of the United Kingdom of Great Britain and Ireland. At that time Saint Patrick's Flag was added to the flag of Great Britain to create the present-day Union Flag.

You'll find it's what I said and what you posted was completley plagiarised from Wikipedia. Well done "yay"

Kingdom of Great Britain is the United Kingdom. But of course you'll know that from your Wikipedia knowledge.

You know the difference between them and the reasons why. You also know why the Welsh flag isn't represented on the Union flag without the help of Wikipedia.

Was it because wales was already united with England? that's what i read anyway.
 
As a flag it's officially called the Union Flag or to some the Union Jack but purists believe it should only be called a Jack when flown on a ship although you'd rarely see it on a ship due to ensign use, and it is the official flag for the United Kingdom of Great Britain and Northern Ireland.

You can call it what you like but the one thing that really pisses me off is when it is flown upside down. In the top left of the flag, the white diagonal stripe of the St. Andrews saltire should be wider above the diagonal red of the St. Patrick's saltire, as Scotland takes preference (sorry). I'm always seeing it up the wrong way and it's a real personal annoyance :Angryfire

Anyhoo, this doesn't come from Wikipedia, it comes from an accumulated 40 family years of professional vexillology and manufacturing.
