David Cameron has said he would be tempted to choose Jerusalem as the national anthem for England's sports teams.

Speaking to a group of young Conservative activists at Downing Street, the Prime Minister revealed he understood why some people feel England should have its own song, like Wales and Scotland do.

A campaign for the country to have its own anthem at sporting events was launched by the thinktank British Future earlier this year.

The classic hymns Jerusalem and Land Of Hope And Glory have emerged as early favourites.
