UK Athletes should have UK flag on clothes, not EU.
A BID to get British sports stars to wear the EU flag on their kit became a step closer to reality yesterday.
This is nothing more than sheer EU propaganda and vanity.
This could also brake the ban on sports bodies’ using political slogans on sports kit – because the EU is in effect a political organisation.
Athletes proudly wear the flag of their own national countries. They should not wear the flag of the European Union.
This needs to be stopped! Every country in the EU should proudly wear their own flag and represent there country for an event like the olympics!
