@Philip_DT@theiaincameron The SFA 🏴, FAW 🏴, IFA 🇮🇪 (now represents Northern Ireland) and FA 🏴 are much older than FIFA and these four created the IFAB which gave football all the rules and cannot be changed without their consent.

As someone who grew up in a housing scheme in Glasgow, I find it obscene that rich men get to invent their oppression- a glamorous oppression- the lanyard classes can 'address' rather than addressing real poverty, desperation and inequality. Shame on the complicit.
A Labour voter all my life (71 now) but I have never felt as ashamed of @UKLabour as I do now, watching MPs queue up to explain why they’re abandoning women, proving that they’re happy for my granddaughters to have fewer rights in future than I have had. Wretched cowards all.
