Change our Olympic team name to Team UK instead of Team GB to reflect the whole country.

Additional Information

I am calling on the government to change the name of our Olympic team to 'Team UK' instead of Team GB and put pressure on the IOC to adopt this title for all future Olympics. Team GB insinuates that only England, Scotland and Wales are represented. This is a clear snub to the people and athletes of Northern Ireland and must change.
