The current Australian flag was designed in 1901 by British subjects living in a British overseas possession .

Australians are no longer British subjects and Australia is now a Sovereign Independant Nation in its own right .

But the design of the flag has not changed to reflect the new status . It now implies a false allegiance .

To answer the question in reference to expressing the question as a debating topic:

"The Australian flag is not relevant to Australia".

The Australian flag has the Union Jack which is the British flag on the top left hand corner because the British colonised Australia, and the Union Jack symbolises Australia's continuing ties with Britain. Australia has no continuing ties with the UK having legally separated in 1986 with the coming into effect of the Australia Acts on the 3rd of March 1986 .
