Keir Starmer has waded into the row over the new England football kits, as he called for the "updated" cross of St George to be changed back. The Labour leader said the new football kit design, which was shared on social media earlier this week, was a mistake.Located on the back of the shirt collar, the cross is interwoven with several different colours: red, purple, blue and black.
The same colours also feature an interpretation of the flag of St. George on the back of the collar.”Despite fury from fans, there are no known plans to recall the product, which has reportedly ‘flown off shelves’ since its launch on Monday. It is understood the FA has also backed the change and will “completely stand by it”.
