FIFA banned Russia from international football but refused to ban Israel for committing war crimes.
When we called this out, FIFA president responded by lifting the ban on Russia—because he cannot ban Israel!
FIFA president awarded the FIFA peace prize—intended to "reward individuals who have taken exceptional and extraordinary actions for peace and by doing so have united people across the world,"—to President Trump.
The same man who was selling Gaza at Davos, threatening Iran with nuclear weapons after the killing Iranian schoolchildren, bombed Venezuela, kidnaped its head of state, want to invade Greenland, and who have publicly said that we do not care about international law; the same man whom the United Nations for the first time in history officially named a sitting U.S. president Donald Trump as a racist whose hate speech has caused grave human rights violations.
The same man who called FIFA president asking to review USMNT Folarin Balogun's red card suspension!
Why did our president grant Lebanese citizenship to Gianni Infantino, FIFA president, through a presidential naturalization decree?!
Gianni Infantino needs to be kicked out of FIFA. He’s the worst thing to have ever happened to football.
Zionism in play
Ahead of today's game, Egypt coach Hossam Hassan appealed to the world to "let the Palestinian people live." Israel responds by killing the head of public relations for the Egyptian Relief Committee in Gaza:
I have spoken to the CEO of Tendring District Council. Reform has offered to cover the cost of the by-election.
I will be writing to Rachel Reeves later today with the same message.
Given that we asked for this by-election in the first place, it’s only right that we pay for it.
one thing you just never could have expected was fifa, creator of the fifa peace prize, and donald trump, the only recipient of the fifa peace prize, engaging in transparent corruption
You know the bit where Stuart Broad talks about how mad it is that Australia got caught ball-tampering the first time they tried it? That, but for the Balogun red card
Whether it is or isn’t a red to Balogun is now irrelevant. Government interference is a violation of FIFA Article 2 & 15, and the punishment is disqualification and suspension. #FIFAWorldCup
The NIMBYs who forced shit like this should be first in line for tax increases and local spending cuts. Just wasting billions of pounds and years of work. Can’t get anything built in this country.
A perfect Sunk Cost Fallacy. It’d have been exponentially cheaper just to buy out everyone who would see the railway line, and sell their properties to people who aren’t NIMBYs.
It is pretty interesting how there are genuinely 0 actual British nationalists
Every single one is subservient to America, they all idolise America and they want us to be more like them
Last I checked HS2 was estimated to cost $500M/km whereas many countries do such rail for $30M/km. City rail tends to cost $200M/km.
We are building HS2 at 2x city rail prices and 15x country rail prices.
'It's literally £100,000 to rent a coffee shop in the centre of town. That is absolutely insane.'
Caller Daniel who owns a coffee shop in Newcastle gets emotional talking to @Lewis_Goodall about the hardship small business owners like him are facing.
An extremely positive sign, along with recent briefing from Burnham camp about breaking UK reliance on US tech giants. This, not clinging to a hardline Brexit, is how you build real British sovereignty.
NEW: The Times has established that Nigel Farage and his partner own at least five homes spanning Surrey, Essex and Kent.
All but one were bought with cash since 2000. Farage described himself as "skint" in 2017.
