I'm not sure "what it has represented" means-- unless it is a veiled "Oirish" statement that I'm not picking up on... nor, as an Irish man, would I care to. Political agendas aside, I'm not a big fan of the "universal tartan" mostly because with civilian wear it looks like something bought at an army surplus store, and seems to find a lot of favour with the white pith helmet brigade at many USA highland games.
