PM says football chiefs should handle Argentina's Falklands banner as opponents demand firmer action
The Prime Minister's spokeswoman said punishing Argentina's players for their Falklands banner was "a matter for FIFA" — football's world governing body. Business Secretary Peter Kyle said FIFA should investigate. Opposition leaders pushed harder: Lib Dem leader Sir Ed Davey said players "must be barred from the final," Conservative leader Kemi Badenoch called the Falklands "British," and Reform UK's Nigel Farage wanted more Royal Navy ships deployed.
