This petition was rejected

The Government e-Petitions Team gave the following reason:

We cannot approve your petition as the issue that it covers is not something that the UK Government or Parliament is responsible for.

Decisions about British Athletics kit are made by UK Athletics, which is not a government agency or public body. If you would like to raise the issue with them, contact details can be found on their website:

If you would like the UK Government or Parliament to take action to require the display of the Union flag more generally, you could start a petition asking for legislation.
