Last Week Tonight host John Oliver.
US late night comedian John Oliver has once again turned his attention to New Zealand, this time sharing his take on the flag debate.
After referring to us as "Australia's Australia", Oliver launched into a three-minute segment discussing the final 40 flag designs and the reasons for the change.
"The
New Zealand flag is different to the Australian flag in the same way Ice Ice Baby is different from Under Pressure, which is to say they are basically the same but one is clearly worse," he said.
Oliver lamented how boring the 40 designs were, and instead shared a selection of his personal favourites.
Though he thinks the kiwi looks like a "dumb fat mouse who got its face stuck on a straw", Oliver, like many New Zealanders, considers the 'Lazer Kiwi' to be a superior flag design.
