Make it a legal requirement to ask permission to change any UK flag on uniforms

Petition to make it a legal requirement to ask government and royal permission to change any UK flag on uniforms and kit representing the UK.

This petition was rejected on 11th Apr 2024 for not being a Government or Parliamentary matter

The Petition Committee commented:
We can only accept petitions about things the Government or Parliament are directly responsible for. Decisions about sports kits are a matter for sports associations, not the UK Government or Parliament.
