Love the flag, saw this on Midlands today last night. I think she's done a great job. Yes, it's genuine.

I watched it on BBC Midlands , I thought the young lady who designed the flag was very clever,and incorporated what the Black Country represents . :grin:
It's easy to stand with the crowd . It takes courage to stand alone
