What ๐Ÿ‡ฌ๐Ÿ‡ง means

The Union Jack: the red and white crosses of England, Scotland and Ireland on blue. It is the flag of the United Kingdom and a shorthand for British identity.

People post ๐Ÿ‡ฌ๐Ÿ‡ง for royal events, travel to London, British TV and music, and to tag British English. It pairs with ๐Ÿ’‚, โ˜• and ๐ŸŽก.

In football and rugby, England, Scotland and Wales play as separate teams, so fans use ๐Ÿด๓ ง๓ ข๓ ฅ๓ ฎ๓ ง๓ ฟ, ๐Ÿด๓ ง๓ ข๓ ณ๓ ฃ๓ ด๓ ฟ or ๐Ÿด๓ ง๓ ข๓ ท๓ ฌ๓ ณ๓ ฟ instead. Northern Ireland has no emoji flag of its own.
