 * Hi, the icon/flag for ‘English’ is represented with the british flag which is
   not a language. The flag for English should be the George Cross (white square
   with red +). Using the british flag is incorrect as britain is made up of England,
   Scotland, Wales and Ireland who all have different flags and native language.
   I think this is an important thing to change as you provide translations for 
   Welsh, Irish and Scots too… there is no british or uk language.
 * To put it into context, it would be the same as using the European flag as 1 
   language used to represent all 44 different countries in europe – yet each has
   their own language.
 * Is there a way for us to change this ourselves, or would you consider changing
   this on a future update?

   to see the link]_

 * thats great, I will take a look thanks.
 * however, I do feel this should be fixed on the next update as it is misrepresenting
   and misleading. There is no British/UK language.

 * I have just had a look and for some reason the flags for England, Scotland, Ireland
   and Wales are not there, only United Kingdom. So, I am unable to make the change.
   Can you add in the flags for these countries too and change the English language
   flag to the George Cross.
 * thanks

 * I’m sure you can find them from Wikipedia, upload to your website or somewhere
   and use the link in alt_flags definition.
 * Thanks! 🙂

 * I really think you are missing the point… these countries should be available
   in their own right.
