Euro-interrogation flag as shown in a cartoon - Image by Eugene Ipavec, 17 September 2005
In The Times (London), 20 May 2005, there is a report of the meeting of Presidents Chirac of France and Kwasniewski of Poland and Chancellor Schröder of Germany in Nancy to encourage support for a "yes" vote in the French referendum on the proposed European Constitution.
The headline reads "The post-no scenarios: what will happen in France and
in Europe if the French electorate reject the Constitution on 29 May?"; there is a cartoon showing the European Union flag with the stars replaced by question marks.

Euro-skepticism flag as shown in a cartoon - Image by Jorge Candeias, 20 October 2005
The Economist, 21 May 2005, has an article entitled "Open Wider: a
survey of international banking" in a section titled "A blurred
euro-vision" about how slow and imperfect is the European banking
integration according to the articulist.
The article is illustrated by a cartoon showing a flag repeating the overall design of the European flag, with the blue field and the yellow ring of elements, replacing the stars by arrows
pointing outwards, away from the center, instantly creating a sense of
disunion.

Paranoid European Union flag as shown in a cartoon - Image by Jorge Candeias, 2 February 2006
The Público newspaper of 22 August 2002 published an article about a
Danish proposal that would give the European Union the power to store a
register of all electronic communications of its citizens for at least a
1-year period.
This article was illustrated by a black and white cartoon by Cristina Sampaio, yet another variation of the
European flag to express a political perspective, this time that of an
Orwellian, paranoid European Union. It is the normal European flag, only that on each
of the stars there is the drawing of an eye. The Big European Brother is watching you, says this flag.
On the image shown above, I am assuming that the colours are those
of the European flag and that the eyes are drawn in blue.

Anti-European flag as shown in a cartoon - Image by António Martins, 26 August 2003
A red flag with a ring of 12 black stars on a white disc was used in political cartoons expressing pressure on European Union instances in favour of coaction measures against the government of Austria, ruled by a coalition including Jörg Haider's extreme right party FPÖ.
António Martins, 26 August 2003
In 2010, the same flag appeared in France, at the website of a "National Campaign against a Totalitarian Europe"(Campagne nationale contre l'Europe Totalitaire). Next year, an analysis of French "Europhobic" political tendencies was published, the text having been illustrated with the same flag image.
