  • Nike unveiled the England soccer team's new kits for the UEFA Euro 2024 tournament, sparking controversy over one detail that has led to calls for change.

  • The change in colors of the St. George Cross on the new football kit caused uproar among fans, leading to calls to boycott the sports manufacturer and criticism from politicians.

  • Political figures like Prime Minister Sunak and Culture Secretary Lucy Frazer expressed criticism towards the design changes, while fans on social media showed both support and opposition to the new kit.

  • Reactions to the new England soccer kit varied from demands to revert the changes to questioning whether the debate was exaggerated in light of other pressing issues. Political leaders like Keir Starmer and Emily Thornberry also voiced their disapproval of the design alterations.
