Go on then, I’ll bite. Simply, it’s either the cross of St. George or it isn’t. There is no such thing as a ‘playful update’. Not that I really care to be honest.
Clearly it is being blown out of all proportion. Smacks of a bit of opportunist populism by Starmer. He should really be above this as a prime minister in waiting. The arguement really isn’t helped being championed by Farage, Lee Anderson and the Daily Fail, and the use of the word ‘woke’. Labour probably shouldn’t get involved with that lot.
However I agree that the prices for these things are utterly disgusting, and the FA should put a stop to it as it’s a national shirt.
