A shop called Boohoo put wrong tags on their clothes. The tags said the clothes were made in the UK, but they were really made far away in South Asia. A group of people who look for the truth found this out. They saw that Boohoo took off the old tags and put on new ones that were not true. Boohoo said it was a mistake and they are trying to fix it.

Some people are worried about Boohoo's mistake. They think Boohoo should have checked the clothes better. When clothes have the wrong tags, the people who buy them might get tricked. Boohoo might close the place where they changed the tags. They said it's not because of the people who found the mistake.
