AS the saying goes, “If it ain’t broke, don’t fix it” – but Team GB doesn’t agree.
It has replaced its red, white and blue flag with a “diverse” pink and purple design ahead of the Paris Olympics.

Team GB designers, from the Bath-based agency Thisaway, said they needed to find a way to “refresh” the colour palette.
But the move was met with furious backlash after a similar row broke out over England’s new kit for the Euros 2024.
However, it has now been confirmed that Team GB athletes will wear the Union Flag as normal in Paris, with kit designs for this summer not yet released.
It comes after FA bosses signed off on a Nike redesign of the nation’s red and white St George’s cross on the collar — adding purple and blue horizontal stripes – causing uproar among fans, players and England manager Gareth Southgate.
To seem current and cool, famous brands are always updating emblems.
But can you spot the NEW logos?
