I say that we should use the English flag,
since the English language is named after England.
I'm American, never been to England, but this doesn't bother me.

And note that the English flag is *not* the Union Jack.
It's *half* of that, the flag of Saint George.

Will this sort of thing work for every language
that doesn't (like Esperanto) have its own flag?
