          That really will help solve the issues of terrorism then! Political correctness seems to be more important than the lives of children!

          It's only called a "union jack" when at sea - on land it's called a "union flag". Just something I learnt from Dr Who

          If I remember right. Only 'jack' when at sea. Is that because of Jacktars.

          Close, but it actually comes from the jackstaff, pole on back of ship from which national flag (later naval ensign) was flown.
