This is the moment when I decided a new flag would be great for our country. out at Twickenham and seeing the two flags looking so similar. The silver fern has always been the special symbol on the All Black jersey that represents who we are as kiwis, so the new flag with a silver fern as a part of it would be a great option I believe.

This is a once in a generation chance to have a distinctive flag for New Zealand.
