for the british blue
the red ''plus sign'' stands for england the blue backround stand for Scotland and the ''red x'' stands for Ireland. If you're not sure what i mean, look at the british flag and you'll see what i mean!:)
The original British colonies.
The flag with a large x on it is the flag of the United Kingdom, commonly known as the Union Jack.
The union jack on the Australian Flag is from the first white people to settle on our land, the British. The British flag is JUST the union jack, so, to celebrate the people who first settled in Australia, we have their flag in part of OUR flag. Hope that helps :)

Australia was a British colony, and adapted their flag from the British flag.

when was the british flag first used
This is another American fable about our history. Ross did not make the flag nor did Washington design it. Her grandson made up the story and has come to us as truth. Congress gives credit to Francis Hopkinson who designed the first flag for the navy in 1776. It was a basic British Union flag with stripes and our second flag replaced the cross on the British flag with stars. The colors do not stand for anything contrary to the Boy Scout handbook.
Th thirteen stripes represent the thirteen British colonies that rebelled against the British monarchy to become the first states of the Union.
The british have never had a flag to change
