Many people have been angered this week by the political statements of Team USA stars at the Winter Olympics. Asked about President Trump’s deportation crackdown, skier Hunter Hess said: “Just because I’m wearing the flag doesn’t mean I represent everything that’s going on in the US.”
Curling star Rich Ruohonen backed him up, saying: “What’s going on in Minneapolis is wrong,”
Should sport and politics not mix? Or should athletes have the right to speak their minds?
Piers Morgan debates the issue with YouTubers Luke Beasley and David Cone, former footballer and football manager Joey Barton and former athlete and Olympian and Times commentator Matthew Syed.
