Today, on Scotland's National Holiday, St Andrew's Day, Facebook asked users in Scotland to use the Romanian flag to celebrate!

The problem lies in the use of emojis - the flag of Scotland is rooted to the history St Andrew himself, yet there is no Scottish Saltire in Facebook's list of emoji flags to represent Scotland.

This is also a problem for Android users and Apple users whose software applications also use emoticons.

Please support this petition and help ensure that next year we in Scotland shall be celebrating St Andrew's Day using our very own flag - the blue and white Saltire.
