What ๐ฏ๐ช means
The flag of Jersey: a red diagonal cross on white with a red shield of three gold lions under a crown. It stands for the Channel Island, a British Crown Dependency off the coast of Normandy.
Islanders use ๐ฏ๐ช for local pride and the Island Games. Visitors post it with beaches, Jersey cows ๐ and Jersey Royal potatoes.
The knitted jersey takes its name from the island. People sometimes pick ๐ฏ๐ช as a joke for New Jersey, which has no emoji flag.
