MessageThis design is more to our liking. It doesn't look as "fascist" as some of the earlier proposed flag designs.

MessageWell, we have 'tempered' the militarism a little with the addition of the olive branches, and the harmonious intimations of the yin-yang symbol.

The problem is, as soon as you make ANY designs that use angular black lines, some people might start to see swastikas where none are... which is the reason this design is much less 'angular'.

MessageWe do like the suggested flag, and will support it.

However we would like to ask the AMA for a favour, and we beg that a later edition of this flag includes the current flag in the canton, although this would mean a reduction in the size of the olive branches. Is this possible, or a mislaid Tory suggestion?

MessageAn interesting idea... just the cross? Or the whole 'white-on-blue-with-one-star' flag?

The one obstacle I can see, is that the flag is designed so that it can also be hung vertically (although, this one actually 'needs' to be turned 'the wrong way' to hang correctly)... so the current 'flag' would likely come to resemble either a crucifix, or an inverted-crucifix, depending on orientation...

MessageAma thanks the Progressive Party, Likaton Front (Conservative Faction), Army of Loyalists and Strength Party, for their support.

There is still some time left (but only about three months), if anyone wishes to change their vote, or if the RLP or JLP wishes to support this Bill, to let it pass.

MessageWell... the AMA representatives have unfortunately got other issues to deal with right now (ooc: real life intrudes)... so, let us just offer thanks to all those who cast votes, either way... and special thanks to those who supported.

MessageIndeed! Just as we were about to leave.... The AM SLP has our eternal gratitude.

AM SLP should hereby accept formal assurance from AMA, we do not consider this matter 'closed' in any way... and will be happy to continue to work towards a flag that might please ALL Likatonians, equally.
