British track cyclist Callum Skinner will be taking home a gold and silver medal from the Rio 2016 Olympics — but he is not comfortable with everyone celebrating his success.
Brexit campaign group Leave.EU posted a video on Twitter featuring pictures of successful Team GB Olympians, including an image of Skinner after his silver in the men’s sprint.
In a message accompanying the video, Leave.EU said: “We may be small, but we truly are Great Britain.”
Skinner responded with this on Tuesday:
@LeaveEUOfficial @TeamGB thanks the the support ???? but I wish you wouldn’t use my image to promote your campaign. ????????????????
