The Liberal Democrats are calling for England striker Harry Kane to be knighted.
They’ve tabled an early day motion in Parliament, which says "this House recognises the efforts of Harry Kane in England’s game against the Democratic Republic of Congo at the FIFA World Cup on Wednesday evening; celebrates the work of the England team in their 2026 World Cup campaign so far; wishes them every success in their next game against Mexico on Monday; notes that Kane has now scored more goals than Pelé at world cups; and believes that Harry Kane should be recognised with a knighthood for these achievements, and for his two outstanding goals in Wednesday evening’s game, which kept England’s World Cup dreams alive."
